Thanks to a drawing that they had for early adopters, I became a poster child for the new library automobile license plate campaign in Massachusetts. I posed with with Lois Lowry, an author of children’s and young adult literature.
Lois received the Newbury medal in 1990 for Number the Stars, a book set in Denmark under Nazi control, and again in 1994 for The Giver, a book that explores darkness in a seemingly perfect world.
