Mood Maven- Vernadette U.

pg.152

"He killed it! My father killed it! Jonas said to himself, stunned at what he was realizing. He continued to stare at the screen numbly."

In this paragraph, the tone and the mood can be described as shocking  because no ever expected that to happen during releases and I also think this is the most important part of the story because if the Giver hadn't pulled out the video of the part where Jonas father release the twins, escaping from the community wouldn't have even crossed his mind.

pg.152

"What about you? Do you lie to me, too?" Jonas almost spat the

question at The Giver.

"I am empowered to lie. But I have never lied to you."

The tone and the mood can be described as angry and also a little bit of a betrayal because Jonas thinks that the Giver have lied to him before because of they have the power to do so.

pg.164

“He felt, surprisingly, no fear, nor any regret at leaving the community behind. But he felt a very deep sadness that he had left his closest friend behind. He knew that in the danger of his escape he must be absolutely silent; but with his heart and mind, he called back and hoped that with his capacity for hearing-beyond, The Giver would know that Jonas had said goodbye.”

The tone and mood is a bit sad because Jonas plans to leave everything behind him and also a sense of nervousness because if Jonas gets caught while his trying to flee its all over for him.

pg.169

"But when the planes came, he wished that he could have received the courage. He knew they were search planes. They flew so low that they woke him with the noise of their engines, and sometimes, looking out and up fearfully from the hiding places, he could almost see the faces of the searchers."

The tone and the mood can be describes as suspenseful and it also has an anxious feel to it because of the fact that they might get caught by the guards and be forced to return to the community and face some consequences.

pg. 179

“Behind him, across vast distances of space and time, from the place he had left, he thought he heard music too. But perhaps it was only an echo.”

The tone and mood of this paragraph can be describe as suspenseful and it also leaves a cliffhanger with the last sentence because when Jonas realized that its just an echo people would want to know what will happen next.
