The Southeast Oklahoma Library System brought Author Lois Lowry to Coalgate, Oklahoma today for an author talk and book signing. The event was held at the Coalgate High School Gymnasium. Coalgate students in grades 9-12 were in attendance as well as community members and people from across Oklahoma. Coalgate was fortunate to be the first stop on Mrs. Lowry’s 3-stop speaking tour. The first 100 people in attendance were given copies of The Giver which the author signed at the conclusion of the event.
Lois Lowry is an American writer. She authored many books for children and young adults, including The Giver Quartet, Number the Stars, the Anastasia series, and Rabble Starkey. She won two Newbery Medals and was the recipient of the 2002 Rhode Island Children’s Book Award.
