Jonas’s world in graphic form

In this graphic-novel adaptation of Lois Lowry’s story, twelve-year-old Jonas lives in a community organized around conformity and apparent contentment. His assignment as Receiver of Memory opens a view onto the community’s hidden realities, while P. Craig Russell’s illustrations render the initially colorless world and its emerging color visually. The book brings the first installment of The Giver Quartet into a comics format, retaining its dystopian focus on memory, social order, and the cost of an idealized community.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in dystopian fiction.
  • Readers who prefer stories told through comics and graphic novels.
  • Those exploring themes of memory, conformity, and social control.

Book overview

The Giver is a modern classic and one of the most influential books of our time.

Now in graphic novel format, Lois Lowry's Newbery Medal-winning classic story of a young boy discovering the dark secrets behind his seemingly ideal world is accompanied by renowned artist P. Craig Russell's beautifully haunting illustrations.

Placed on countless reading lists, translated into more than forty languages, and made into a feature film, The Giver is the first book in The Giver Quartet that also includes Gathering Blue, Messenger, and Son.

In this new graphic novel edition, readers experience the haunting story of twelve-year-old Jonas and his seemingly ideal, if colorless, world of conformity and contentment, through the brilliant art of P. Craig Russell that truly brings The Giver to life.

Witness Jonas's assignment as the Receiver of Memory, watch as he begins to understand the dark secrets behind his fragile community, and follow the explosion of color into his world like never before.
