5.0 out of 5 stars Great Trilogy, July 3 2007
By M. Espinoza "I shanked with my shiv!" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Worlds of Lois Lowry 3 Copy Boxed Set (Paperback)
This box-set is one of the most enduring trilogies I have ever read. The first book is an instant classic, The Giver. I actually read this book back in 1994, when I was in the 4th grade. I read it now again, and I am still just as enamored with it. I didn't even know there were two other books that followed until I did some research. The next two books are just as good, and the best part is that are not carbon-copies. One could actually read them by themselves, but it's so much better when you know the stories before them.

3.0 out of 5 stars "The Giver" is amazing, Nov 10 2008
By Angel Delgado - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Worlds of Lois Lowry 3 Copy Boxed Set (Paperback)
The only book in this set that I loved was "The Giver". The other two were ok if you really want to know what happens to Jonas, or if you want to know more about the world that Lois Lowry created. But honestly I'd rather have just read the first book and left the rest to my imagination. Gathering Blue was ok, a little drawn out and not very exciting. The messenger was more interesting then Gathering Blue. I feel that the fault of the two lies with my own expectations and the lack of wonder and the mystic of "The Giver". After reading "The Giver" I was left with so many questions and a sense of awe. After reading the entire trilogy I was left underwhelmed and disappointed. In my opinion "The Giver" is a must read, the other two could be skipped.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great boxed-set, Feb 22 2010
By S. Rutter "Florida Teacher 27" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Worlds of Lois Lowry 3 Copy Boxed Set (Paperback)
I didn't know before this year that _The Giver_ had two other books that were companion texts. I was excited to find them all three collected together in one attractive boxed-set. My students have been fighting all year to see who could borrow _Gathering Blue_ and _The Messenger_ next.
