Reviews
"Written with powerful, moving simplicity, Claire's story stands on its own, but as the final volume in this iconic quartet, it holistically reunites characters, reprises provocative socio-political themes, and offers a transcending message of tolerance and hope. Bravo!"-- Kirkus, starred review "Lowry is one of those rare writers who can craft stories as meaningful as they are enticing."-- Booklist, starred review "Son is a tender conclusion to this memorable story, and definitely the best of the books in this sequence since The Giver itself."-- School Library Journal, starred review "The strength of this novel is its compassionate portrait of a mother's commitment to her lost child."-- Horn Book, "Written with powerful, moving simplicity, Claire's story stands on its own, but as the final volume in this iconic quartet, it holistically reunites characters, reprises provocative socio-political themes, and offers a transcending message of tolerance and hope.
