The Giver takes place in a small Community where everybody is color blind because of the law of sameness. It was around December near the ceremony in which every twelve year old receives a life assignment from the elders.

The main characters in The Giver are Jonas, Fiona, Lily, mother, and father. The most important character is Jonas because he's in the whole book and the story is about him. Jonas is very brave. He's brave because he let the giver give him the memories with pain and he had to feel the pain everywhere he went. He was nervous when the giver was going to give him the memories because he didn't know what kind of memory he was going to give him.

jonas and ErinJonas is friendly because he has a lot of friends and he's not mean. He's risk taking because he didn't know what kind of pain he was going to feel in the memories.

I kind of feel sorry for Jonas because he lives in a Community where nobody can see in color because of the law of sameness.
