The Giver by Lois Lowry Chapter 4


As you know I've been reading The Giver by Lois Lowry. On Sunday I read chapter four of the book. Chapter four is about Jonas meeting his friends Ashton and Fiona at the House of the Old. When Jonas gets there he greets the attendant at the front desk, and she tells him that Ashton and Fiona are in the bathing room and that he should go help. As instructed, Ashton reports to the bathing room. There Fiona and Ashton both greet him with warm hellos. After that, Jonas checks the list to see who's next. He calls Larissa, the Old that he will be bathing. He helps her in the tub and starts washing her up. As she Jonas washes her, Larissa tells him of the release celebration that went on earlier. When she told Jonas who it was he said he knew the person and that they were a good person. While Larissa is getting bathed she tells how wonderful the celebration was. Then they too talk more about Roberto, the elder that was released, life.
