Giver Q and A.
 
 

The Giver. All New!  Option: Pairs!
SWEET RELEASE - In your notebook, under the title "Release" give as many examples as you can of the different meanings of the word release. I looked in the dictionary, and found 12-16, depending on how picky you want to get, and they didn't include euphemisms. Give an example, use it in a sentence or short phrase, or just explain. Remember, it can be a noun or a verb! (Don't forget the obvious ones.)
Go!
