Title: A Wonderful Story for All Ages
Review: Lois Lowry has an uncanny way of making children's literature relate to readers of all ages. She tells a story, often through the eyes of an innocent child who is not yet burdened with the responsibilities of adulthood but who soon will be, and she reveals a universal truth that enlightens young readers and makes older readers reflect on life. This story is set in the early 1900s, a time when mentally disabled people were thought to be dangerous. However, when young Katy Thatcher establishes a special friendship with an autistic farm boy, she learns of love through a terrible disaster. An ingenious plot with a haunting end, this book will most definitely have an impact on any reader's life.
