Denver's Epilogue for "The Giver"

After reading Lois Lowry's The Giver the grade eights were left with a lot of questions. If you have read the book you will likely share the students' bewilderment at Lowry's ending. Students were asked to write a new epilogue for The Giver.
     After moving through the writing process, students were asked to reflect on their own work in hopes that the process of reflection will help them become better learners.

Here is Denver's epilogue from beginning to end.
