Gathering Blue – Lois Lowry
This story is about a girl named Kira who lives in a village. One of Kira’s legs is deformed so she can’t walk. Pretty soon her mom dies and she must go to the council of elders to see if she can stay in the village or die. Her village does not use years to determine how old they are instead they use syllables. Kira’s best friend was Matt. Matt as you can see is one syllable old.
I think this book is good for girls and boys. Its storyline isn’t as hard to follow as the Giver’s storyline . I would give this book 7.3 out of ten as ten being great and one being not so good. Thank you for reading my blog. Have a nice day!
