Lois Lowry:
In Number the Stars, why did you include the dog, Trofast? What significant meaning did he hold?
Lois Lowry
No meaning. Just the kind of detail of a child's life that makes the story seem real.

Lois Lowry:
Hallo, Mrs. Lowry! I think my family's copy of "Goonie Bird Greene" is still in my mother's car. I read it much when I was little! So, on with le questions. What do you think about the recent dystopians swimming around in the YA market? Is it neat to see the influx of works with the same genre as some of yours? And lastly, do you qualify The Giver, personally, as a dystopian? Thank you. Sincerely, Rowenna.
