Gathering Blue, now stunningly redesigned in paperback, is the second book in the Giver Quartet which began with The Giver, the Newbery Medal winner in 1994. It tells the story of Kira, orphaned, physically flawed, and left with an uncertain future, and challenges readers to imagine what our world could become, how people could evolve, and what could be considered valuable.
