I bought this book for my 12 year old son to read. I enjoyed reading this book as a young adolescent and wanted to see if my son would also enjoy the story. My son doesn’t “enjoy” reading but rather does it as a task assigned but I did find him picking up the book without my prompting and he did read much longer than he normally does. My son was able to read this in just a few days and said he liked the story and that it was interesting. I like that we could discuss some of the things going on and will be able to enjoy a movie version of this same story. I’m super happy that they make this book as a graphic novel as and hope they make the other books into graphic novels too.

A great story. Very Orwellian. I can’t say that I was familiar with the original source, but I’m glad I went for it. Great use of colour palette to build the world.

I have read the prose version of The Giver too many times to count, so I was excited when the graphic novel version was announced and eager to read it when it arrived. P. Craig Russell does an excellent job of illustrating Jonas's world and bringing "sameness" to life. The use of blues instead of greytones to indicate the lack of color is extraordinarily effective, as is the use of a single color in most of the memories that Jonas receives from the Giver. I read an interview with Russell in which he discussed his interpretation of the book's ending (no spoilers here, and we're just going to ignore that the other three books in the Giver Quartet exist) and was pleased to read that he and I shared our view of how the book ends. The graphic rendering of the ending is very well done--and still somewhat open for interpretation. All that said, the fact that I was able to SEE all the horrors of Jonas's society made everything so much worse. It was one thing reading it and imagining it myself, but it was a completely different animal when it was laid out in visual form on the page. Again, no spoilers, but I was extremely affected by chapter 20 and onwards, to the point where I can say that this is an extraordinary and important graphic novel that I never want to read again.

I feel like the graphic form really adds to the book and gives especially the memories a much more dramatic feel. I can recommend it.
