One of the most important works of the modern era, The Giver is a contemporary classic. The Newbery Medal?winning classic tale of a young boy learning the dark secrets that lie beneath his seemingly perfect world is now available in graphic novel format, and it is accompanied by the masterful pictures of famous illustrator P. Craig Russell. The Giver is the first novel in the Giver Quartet, which also consists of Gathering Blue, Messenger, and Son. It has been included on innumerable reading lists, has been translated into more than forty languages, and has been adapted into a feature film. The amazing artwork of P. Craig Russell, who wonderfully brings The Giver to life, allows readers to experience the tragic tale of twelve-year-old Jonas and his seemingly perfect, albeit colourless, world of conformity and contentment in this new graphic novel edition.
