year-old boy who lives
in a rigidly controlled
society. Not many
things to do as if you
were living like us but
they are not.

3. The Giver : Jonas’ Adversities
 Jonas becomes wiser while he trains
to become the Receiver. The giver
will give Jonas memories of strength
and courage to help him go on.
 Jonas wonders about release. The
Giver explains to Jonas that he
himself cannot ask to be released
until the new Receiver (Jonas) has
been trained.
 Rosemary was selected to be the
new Receiver exactly as Jonas was.
The Giver began training her, giving
her happy, joyful memories until she
demanded that he also give her
painful and anguished memories.

4. Zebra
Adam Zebrin (Zebra) loves to
run. He thinks he cant live
without doing what he loves.
One day while he was
running down a steep hill he
was hit by a car.
He had injured his arm and has
not regain use of it yet. The

couldn’t run until his arm
healed. So, he learned how to
do something else and it was
art and while doing that he
had regained use of his arm.  Literature book

5. Zebra’s adversities
Zebra when he started
running again.
After Zebra’s accident he
met a man. This man
volunteered at Zebra’s
summer program at his
school. This man
persuaded Zebra to start
doing art. Zebra tries doing
it and succeeded. While
doing art his arm heals and

6. Seventh Grade
 Victor was a boy in the
seventh grade who had a
crush on this girl named
Teresa, a girl he had liked
since they were in catechism
classes at Saint Theresa’s ,was
taking French, too. With any
luck they would be in the
same class. Teresa is going to
be my girl this year, he
promised himself as he left
the gym full of students in
their new fall clothes. She was
cute. And good in math, too,
Victor thought as he walked
down

7. Victor’s Adversities
 After Victor agreed to
tutor Te’resa they both
learned to speak french.
Before Victor told the
teacher that he knew
how to speak frenchit
wasn’t true at all so he
has learned. After thet
things happened
between them I believe
that they decided to be
just friends.

8. Reflections
 These characters and stories I have wrote have
overcome some major adversities. In the giver Jonas
learned to become wiser to take on the role of the
Reciever. As he learned to become the reciever he went
over major obstacles. In the story The Zebra he just
wanted to run for the rest of his life when this random
man entered his life and tought him how to do art. In
the story Seventh grade he learned to not be so shy
and speak his mind.
