SynopsisMadeleine L'Engle's ground-breaking science fiction and fantasy classic, soon to be a major motion picture. It was a dark and stormy night; Meg Murry, her small brother Charles Wallace, and her mother had come down to the kitchen for a midnight snack when they were upset by the arrival of a most disturbing stranger. "Wild nights are my glory," the unearthly stranger told them. "I just got caught in a downdraft and blown off course. Let me sit down for a moment, and then I'll be on my way. Speaking of ways, by the way, there is such a thing as a tesseract." A tesseract (in case the reader doesn't know) is a wrinkle in time. To tell more would rob the reader of the enjoyment of Miss L'Engle's unusual book. A Wrinkle in Time , winner of the Newbery Medal in 1963, is the story of the adventures in space and time of Meg, Charles Wallace, and Calvin O'Keefe (athlete, student, and one of the most popular boys in high school). They are in search of Meg's father, a scientist who disappeared while engaged in secret work for the government on the tesseract problem. A Wrinkle in Time is the winner of the 1963 Newbery Medal. It is the first book in The Time Quintet, which consists of A Wrinkle in Time, A Wind in the Door, A Swiftly Tilting Planet, Many Waters , and An Acceptable Time . A Wrinkle in Time is soon to be a movie from Disney, directed by Ava DuVernay, starring Storm Reid, Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon and Mindy Kaling.

  • Outstanding!

    I read A Wrinkle in Time 40 yrs ago and wanted to read it again. My son was five when I read it to him and he still remembers it. The reader is introduced to the Murray family whose father disappears. Meg is the protagonist and the reader gets to see her development of confidence, courage, determination and love to rescue her father from evil forces. It has far deeper meaning than most fantasy fiction. Wonderful!

    A children's book but for adults of all ages. A writing of insights for living a righteous life.

  • The title is a little obscure, but there is an explanation of it somewhere in the book.

    The soft-cover book was a bit worn. One page was totally loose from the binder. Nevertheless, I was able to read it and I plan to send it on to my granddaughters who are 11 and 13 years old respectively.
