The two-time Newbery Medal winner and the author of more than 20 young adult novels, Lois Lowry is no stranger to what makes a book entertaining and engaging. Her most well-known books, The Giver and Number the Stars, often appear on middle school reading lists and have become tenured classics.
All of her novels grapple with human connection, or as Lowry writes, "the vital need of people to be aware of their interdependence, not only with each other, but with the world and its environment."
