There were a few books that interested me.GATHERING BLUE and MESSENGER. I read the first book THE GIVER and I loved it. Thats all for today!
I haven't read a lot of Lois Lowery's books, but the one I read, Number the Stars, was pretty good.
I thought that The Giver, Gathering Blue, and Messenger looked like a great triology. I thought it looked really good because, it was fantasy and it sort of sounded like a Lord Of The Rings book, which I really like. I also liked Gossamer's description because it sounded like a book about fantasy creatures.
Well I have a read a lot of books by Mrs. Lowry and they're very interesting books. The books I have read are: Messenger, The Giver, Gathering Blue, and Gossamer. She has an exciting and mysterious imagination, and I love her books. I would really love to read some of her other books like: A Summer to Die, Looking Back, Autumn Street, and Find a Stranger, Say Goodbye. I would like to read these books because the descriptions sound a lot like a book I would not want to put down!!!
Some Louis Lowry books I would want to read are Number the Stars and Us and Uncle Fraud.They sound interesting because I like to read realistic fiction and they sound like really interesting books!
I found a few books that looked fun to read. I liked Gossamer. I herd that the book was really good. The Giver also sounded good. I think my brother read that book and he liked it.
our class read Number The Stars in fifth grade and it was good. I don't know if I want to read it, but I might read it again. Good bye.
see you around Sam seems like a good book because when I read the summary about it seemed like a cool book to read and the series it sounded cool to read
I'm honestly not a HUGE Lois Lowry fan. I've read a couple of her books and didn't really enjoy them but these books look interesting to me.....
The Silent Boy because it sounds the discription is interesting, A summer to die, Find a stranger, say goodbye, Us and Uncle Fraud, and looking Back.
I will read a lot of your books now that I know some that I like.
I will read giver,gathering blue,and messenger by the end of the year.
They sound very interesting.
On my other one I did not start my first sentence with a capital letter.
I did not find any good books from Lois Lowery but maybe i will later!
The giver sounded like a good trilogy to me. I heard about it from two people in my class last year.they said it was good so I want to read them.
Switcharound and Anistaysia again sounds pretty good to read.
The only book I was interested in was The Giver. It sounded cool, but when I read the summery, it wasn't really my style.
The books that interested me were THE GIVER, GATHERING BLUE, and MESSENGER. They sound like a good read, and I think I would enjoy them.
Two books I saw that really interested me were Numbering The Stars and Messenger ! Their summarys really interested me. Right know I'm reading Jerry Spinelli books but after I think I might read some Louis Lowrey.
I really prefer other books to Mrs.Lowry's work.
I found a couple books that interested me. Stay Away, Gossamer, A Summer to Die, and Messenger. I can't wait to read them all. Bye!
I went to Lois Lowry's website and looked at her books,I have only read one of her books,Numbering The Stars and it was really good. I picked out a couple new books that sound good to read: Gossamer,A summer to die, and Autumn Street.
I think that The Giver and The Messenger seem like interesting and cool books to read because Lois Lowry is a great auther!
Messanger sounds good also
I think that Lois Lowry would be a good author for me to read. She's got some really interesting books that i would probably like. I've read Number the Stars, and I loved it. I am really interested in Summer to Die.
I think by the summary it sounds like the Anastasia series sounds like there is no real bad problem. It is probably like a dairy and I think it might be for girls.
There are 2 books I want to read! One of them is The Silent Boy and the other one is The Summer to Die(they sound really good to me)! I have also read Numbering the Stars! It was really good!
In 5th grade my teacher made me read Numbering the Stars and I didn't really like it. Some of the books I want to read are The Giver and The Messenger. I want to read those because the look like they might be scary and I like scary books.
lots of people want to read The Giver and Messenger also Gathering Blue.
My goal is to read every book in her series before this school year is over. So far I have read 11 of 33. So I have 22 more books to go. I think I will finish the Gooney Bird series, and then work on the rest of the Stand alone books. Of course, some of the books I didn't like, but some of them I love!
There were a few books that I wanted to read.A SUMMER TO DIE, FIND A STRANGER,SAY GOODBYE, US AND UNCLE FRAUD, STAY KEEPERS STORY. Also THE GOONY BIRD SERIES, THE MESSENGER, and THE GIVER!!!!!!!!!!
The book that caught me is A SUMMER TO DIE. Darcie read it and suggested it to me.I hope to read it when i am done reading the book i am on right now.
Whoops i mean author not auther
The two books that I like are, Autumn Street and Number The Stars. They both take place in World War II. They are interesting to me because my Mom's grandfather was in that war.
I guess the Messenger is the most popular book. It didn't really sound all that great, but I don't like any of these books.
All of Lowis Lowrie books are good books and the ones I liked was the giver, gathering blue, and the messenger. They sounded great!
I have read a couple of her books.
I have read numbering the stars it was great I now interested in Gathering Blue its about a girl who loses her mom and she leaves to see the council and the council said that she has magic powers that are keeping her alive.
no i think that The Giver is the most popular book right now
So far I have not found any books that I want to read!Although I have not finished reading the summaries of all of her books.
It sounds like people are really interested in The Giver and the Messenger. I've read them and they are great!!
It's either the Giver or the Messenger. Or that other one, but I can't remember what it is.
Anastasia Again!
sounds interesting
its the blue gathering that your thinking of Kevin
I have not really read a lot of books written by her but last year my teacher made us read Number The Stars.I thought that is was a pretty good book.I think that some of her books are for grownups only.gotta go bye-bye.
