My prediction is the old man will give stuff to others and that he lives in the I think all of this because the man in the cover seems to have a lot of wrinkles and he has a long beard and seems to be a little bald. I think he is going to give stuff to other people because the tittle pf the book is the giver and he will make stuff out of wood and give it to other people I think this because there is a picture of the forest in the cover. I think he lives on the forest because there is a picture of a forest in the cover.
