4.0

I read The Giver about fourteen years ago, but certain parts of that powerful book stuck with me: the tossing of an apple, the sled ride in the snow. This graphic novel version was well done. I forgot what a cliffhanger of an ending this was, though! Maybe it seemed particularly this way in this format, since there’s less opportunity for inner dialogue. I realize there’s a sequel and now I’m feeling motivated to seek it out.
