Lowry on the dedication page said "For all the children to whom we entrust the future." I think by saying this statement Lowry is trying to tell to the youngest generations that the future depends on us. Also in our actions, because we are the ones who are going to live the future and we are the ones that have to make things right from the beginning to have a good life. By saying this Lowry is also trying to tell us that the adults are putting all of their lives on children so they can make a better world.
From what I have seen on The Giver cover page and on its back summery I think that this book will be about I boy who lives a perfect life and he is going to see and feel what's real pain and fear. I think this book would be about that because on the back summery it says that when Jonas turns 12 he would go and talk to the giver that he is the one that knows the truth about pain and pleasure. To me the Giver is the only man in this perfect world that they live in, that has experience pain and happiness, and when boys turn 12 they go to him and he makes them feel pain and the pleasure of life so when they know how it feels. The Giver is the man who makes them realize there is more than the world they live in. I would describe this book as a book that has dystopia because I think that at the beginning the world would seen perfect but at the end it would make us realize its not really perfect for Jonas.
My prediction of the book is that when Jonas turns twelve he would go to see the Giver and the Giver would make him feel real pain and real life pleasure, that this would make Jonas think in a different way about his perfect world and he would want to search for answers. I also think it would make him question everything in his life and that could be a problem.
