Gabriel
At the end of "The Giver," Jonas and Gabriel escape the community and journey to a new place, seeking freedom and a better life.
In their perfect community where everyone must live by certain rules or be "released" (excluded) and out on their own. They fear that if they can't get the baby's fretfulness under control then no family unit will want him and he will be released even though he is a baby that cannot fend for himself.
The child that Jonas saves in "The Giver" is Gabriel, a baby who is scheduled to be released because he is not developing according to the community's standards. Jonas takes Gabriel with him when he leaves the community in search of Elsewhere.

Gabriel is a newchild at the nurturing center. Gabriel is placed in the extra care section for help because he does not grow normally like other children and does not sleep regularly. Jonas's father brings Gabriel home at nights to spend time with the family. Both Jonasand Gabriel has pale eyes which are rare in the community where most of the people have dark eyes. Spending nights at Jonas's family unit, Gabriel is able to sleep soundly beside Jonas because Jonas gives him peaceful memories to help him sleep. Later, Gabriel is chosen to be released from the community, and Jonas takes Gabriel to save him from being released.
Well, when Jonas asked his parents if Gabriel could sleep in his room that night, he was still restless. Accidentally, when trying to calm him, Jonas passed him his memory of the sailboat on the lake, the Giver had given it to him. Gabriel went quiet. Later in the book, when Gabriel and Jonas were in the snow, Jonas gave Gabriel the memory of fire, and warmth. I hope this helped you!
