Lois Lowry:
What was your favorite type of book to read as a young adult reader and did this reading genre influence your writing style and your choice of writing for young adult readers or no particular age group. As a teacher I read many young adult books with enjoyment. In my opinion , a good story is a good story. Thank you, Dawn Copley

I have always enjoyed realistic fiction. And I write it, as well; but I find myself intrigued as a writer by other genres, too.

Lois Lowry:
The giver was recently adapted into a film where many changes were made to the story and the characters. On NPR you said you wished you had written the book like it was changed in the film. Did you mean the way they changed the setting in the film, or the characters in the film as well? I was a bit disappointed in the character changes in the film adaptation. Thank you for writing The Giver.
