They all say he was eaten by the beasts, but when the old women told her there was no beasts and nor would there ever be Kira coulden't help but wonder. When she watched mother die from a sudden sickness Kira is left with little food and possesiens to call her own. When Vandara acuses her and says that she is weak and can do nothing she says that she can weave, she shows them the tiny scrap of cloth. Read more to find out what happens to Kira.

This book is 215 pages long. I'll give it four out of five stars (****.)

Seamus read the Giver after I saw it on your blog. He's just started this book this week.
