Authors and Artists for Young Adults on Lynn Hall

The author of over fifty novels for juvenile and young adult readers as well as over two dozen novels for younger readers, Lynn Hall focuses on coming-of-age stories featuring dogs and horses. Her stories of young girls in transition deal with illness, parental control and neglect, sexuality, and friendships. Some of her best-known books, such as The Solitary, Just One Friend, Flying Changes, Flyaway, and Halsey's Pride, combine the best of a quick read for reluctant readers with the depth of an emotionally charged novel. A contributor to the St. James Guide to Young-Adult Writers noted that the problems of the characters in Hall's novels "are easily empathized with and involving. Hall's works describing unusual careers, hobbies, or settings are meticulously researched and rich in detail, teaching while at the same time telling a story." In addition to her novels revolving around dogs and horses are young adult novels concerned with teenagers facing difficult circumstances.
