Donna Lore asked Lois Lowry:

While reading Son, my class and I had many questions about the settings in the book. There was such a contrast in each of the communities. We were wondering how one community could be progressive, like jet planes and then the other be so primitive, - no schools or doctors. How could these communities be so different from each other? Were they in the same dimension?

Taylor asked Lois Lowry:

IN THE GIVER, JONAS IS MUCH LIKE ANNE-MARIE, THEY ARE BOTH UNDER PRESSURE, AND THEY WANT TO FIND OUT WHATS REALLY GOING ON, DID YOU IMAGINE THEM TO BE, IDLY THE SAME KIND OF CHARACTER?

Stephanie

Stephanie asked Lois Lowry:

Race is briefly addressed as "sameness" in The Giver. I wonder how this sameness was achieved. I think the entire race was Caucasian, since Jonas makes a reference to red hair and light eyes. What happened to allow this to occur? Eugenics? Genocide?
