In the book The Giver, the main character, Jonas, lives in a community with no pain or color. In this community, everybody is the same. They all wear the same clothes, they all ride bikes, and they all have jobs. The people of the community have never been able to feel love, starvation, pain, or many other feelings that we feel. There is, however one person in the community who can see color, feel pain and love. He is called the Giver. Jonas is called the Receiver of Memories. Jonas has to keep all of the memories of pain, joy, love, hatred, war, and many other things. Jonas has to feel pain, and go through war, and he can't do anything about it. Yet there are many other, more joyful and happy memories of love, christmas, snow, and sunlight. Then Jonas comes up with a plan to bring back color, pain, and love to the community. But I can't tell you that part, you will have to read it yourself to find out. The Giver is a very interesting book and I would recomend that you read it if you get the chance.
