图书简介

图书详情

From the two-time Newbery Medal–winning author of Number the Stars and The Giver comes a novel about how even the smallest of dreams can break through the darkest of nights.

In a haunting story by Lois Lowry that tiptoes between reality and imagination, two people—a lonely, sensitive woman and a damaged, angry boy—face their own histories and discover what they can be to one another, renewed by the strength that comes from a tiny, caring creature they will never see.

Gossamer is perfect for readers not quite ready for Lois Lowry’s Newbery Medal winner The Giver and also for readers interested in dreams, nightmares, spirits, and the dream world.

Lois Lowry is the author of more than forty books for children and young adults, including the New York Times bestselling Giver Quartet and the popular Anastasia Krupnik series. She has received countless honors, among them the Boston Globe–Horn Book Award, the Dorothy Canfield Fisher Award, the California Young Reader Medal, and the Mark Twain Award. She received Newbery Medals for two of her novels, Number the Stars and The Giver.

LOIS LOWRY: Two-time Newbery Medal winner, described by biographer Joel Chaston as “clearly one of the most important twentieth-century American writers for children,” whose books are a staple of both middle school curricular and banned book lists.

AN UNUSUAL FRIENDSHIP: Lowry draws together an unlikely, but special, friendship between an elderly woman and a young boy that bridges generational gaps in a profound way.
