Great series over on NPR made even better by my favorite children's literature author :-)

Having previously expounded on my love of all things Lois Lowry, I happened upon a wonderful article today which featured Ms. Lowry. NPR's You Must Read This series is wonderful in its own right; but today, it's even wonderfuler because of Lois Lowry's presence.

Her choice for NPR's You Must Read This is Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings' The Yearling, the 1939 Pulitzer Prize winner. I have to be honest and say that I've never read the book, though I've thumbed through it a few times in effort. Of course, Lowry's recommendation may change that.
