The Giver Discussion Questions.

Hi everybody!! Having just seen the new Giver movie that came out ://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJNNugNe0Wo I decided to make a few book discussion questions.

1. Do you agree with the way the community was controlled? What is your ideal world? How would you create it and Why?

2. How do you think you personally would have handled the memories and the emotions Jonas received.

3. Would you have kept secret about the memories you gained, or would you have tried to share them with people you knew?

4. If you were the Giver would you have left with Jonas? Left the community to sort it's own problems out? Or would you have stayed to help them through the pain and flood of new emotion.

5. Do you think it was the best/right thing to subdue the 'stirrings'? What do you think the outcome would have been if people didn't have to take the pills?

Hope these were helpful!!
