1937:
It's 20th March, we are in Honolulu (Hawaii) and Lois Ann Lowry is born...

1954-1956:
Almost all family is in New York City, except of their father, which stayed in Japan. Lois goes there on Brown University... It's 1956 and Lois is already married to Donald Grey Lowry.

1958-1962:
It's 1958 and Lois is pregnant with Donadl- they are having their first boy baby Alix.. Now we come 3 years later to her house and we can see there 4 children- Alix, Grey, Kristin and Benajmin.. It's 1962 and one of the sadest thing that could happen to Lois- her sister Helen dies from cancer

1977:
Lois gets divorced, but she published her first and excellent novel Summer to Die. She mainly wrote this book about her sister...

1990-1994:
Lois receives her first and not last Newbery Medal for Number the Stars...In next four years she gets another Newbery Medal for book The Giver.


This is about it.. These are the main things about Lois Lowry, which I already talked about in the last review.. Lois was most of her life travelling around the world, not only when she was small (with her family, because of father's work) but also when she was adult, but now it was because of her work.
So this is Lois Lowry life and if you didn't read any of her books, I really recommend you to read something from her.
