Book Recommended by Abbey B.
Lawrenceville Branch
Gathering Blue, by Lois Lowry, is a thought provoking book that tells the story of Kira, a young girl who lives with a twisted leg. She learns to survive as an orphan in a society where no mercy is shown to those with disabilities. She is dedicated to any task placed before her, and when she is presented the incredible task of weaving the treasured Singer’s robe, the story really begins. Mysteries and secrets begin arising that would never be expected. Kira learns things not only about her community, but even about herself and what lies beyond the boundaries of her surroundings. This book was very interesting and ad twist the reader would not expect. My favorite part of Gathering Blue would have to be when Kira hung out with a younger tyke, Matt. Students in middle and high school would most enjoy this title. If you enjoyed this book, I would recommend other works in the series including The Giver and Messenger.
