Title: Great for teens and adults alike!
Review: When I was in fourth grade, this book was read to me by my English teacher. I liked it then, but couldn't really get into it. I understood it, but I just couldn't grasp the emotions needed to fully enjoy the book. Now, in the 8th grade, we are reading it for an assignment. I have only 3 words--I LOVE IT!! We were assigned to read 1 chapter each night. I finished the book in less than 2 days. Once you pick it up, it's glued to your hands until you finish it, and then the basic idea is glued to your mind forever. I would recommend this book for anyone over the age of 12 or 13. Anyone under these ages simply would not be able to understand the content of the book fully. All of the emotions that Jonas is feeling, the conflict that is brought about by "sameness"--you HAVE to be able to understand these concepts to enjoy the book. I strongly recommend this book. And to Lois Lowry--keep up the great work!
