Lois Lowry was born in 1937 in Honolulu, Hawaii, the daughter of an army officer. She went to school in Japan, university in the US and currently lives in Boston. While working as a freelance journalist in the 1970’s, Lois Lowry published a short story which was based on her own childhood and a children’s book editor contacted her to suggest she write for children. She followed this advice and has been writing for children, very successfully, for years!
She's a crackle-brained, fizzle-headed, freckle-faced dynamo who is going places in life.
Her dad's a poet, her mum's an artist, and just sometimes she feels she's getting buried under her family. With the arrival of a baby brother, serious action is called for. Should she leave home, or should she stick it out and see what happens...?
"... fast and unfailingly funny."
