Angela
Angela asked Lois Lowry:

Where is your favorite place to relax and read or write?

Stephanie
Stephanie asked Lois Lowry:

Race is briefly addressed as "sameness" in The Giver. I wonder how this sameness was achieved. I think the entire race was Caucasian, since Jonas makes a reference to red hair and light eyes. What happened to allow this to occur? Eugenics? Genocide?

Ashley
Ashley asked Lois Lowry:

As you started writing Gathering Blue, did you know that it was going to lead into The Messenger and eventually tie The Giver's loose ends up? The multiple story lines in the sequels were amazing. At first, I was completely unaware that the books would continue off one another! Movie sequels?
