Queroix asked Lois Lowry:

Hello Lois Lowry! I'm Kristina - book blogger & your fan from Russia. I read "The Giver" and I really loved it. Actually your book helped me with my exam. So thank you:) I would love to know why children in "The Giver" don't have parents? And also I wanted to know if you think that "The Giver" is alike "WE" - a novel by Evgeniy Zamyatin? Thank you for your talent and for answering my questions:)

Catherine Burns
Catherine Burns asked Lois Lowry:

I have followed the wonderful growth in children's literature and watched as several generations have read, discussed, loved, and grown richer from their experience with The Giver, a book truly ahead of its time. What does Ms. Lowry think has kept The Giver at the forefront of this genre, and destined to become a classic?

regan asked Lois Lowry:

Were you nervous to show others, like family members, your work when you first began writing?
