A Conversation with Lois Lowry

Broadcast on:
26 Dec 2024

For nearly 50 years, Lois Lowry's books have adeptly tackled friendship, loyalty, fear, comfort, family, war, political oppression, love, grief, racism, and so much more – and usually from the perspective of the children themselves. Lois Lowry joins us to share how, through writing, she tries β€œto convey her passionate awareness that we live intertwined on this planet and that our future depends upon our caring more, and doing more, for one another.”
