Lois Lowry Quotes:
Ocupation: Writer
Life: b. March 20, 1937
Birthday: March 20
Early on I came to realize something, and it came from the mail I received from kids. That is, kids at that pivotal age, 12, 13 or 14, they're still deeply affected by what they read, some are changed by what they read, books can change the way they feel about the world in general. I don't think that's true of adults as much.
