    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!

    Do You Grok or Tesseract?

    Why was I only reading Nancy Drew as a "young adult?" Did I realize that this habit would mark me for life as a murder mystery junkie? Did anyone ever mention A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle, a book recently celebrating its 50th anniversary since being published? It's a Newberry award winner, for heavens sake! I ordered my own copy of Wrinkle after I read it. You can never start too soon in stashing away books to read to your grandchildren -- so they don't realize when they arrive at late middle age that there are significant holes in their literary experience. Adding to the fact that this is another "juvenile" book is its overlay of science fiction, a genre that never really caught me despite my love of Stranger in a Strange Land. L'Engle herself believes the story was poorly ...

    A Wrinkle in Time

    "A Wrinkle in Time" by Madeleine L'Engle is a truly great classic children's book and one of the best chapter books of the 20th century. Its literature awards include Newbery medal. The main characters of the story are three children: Meg Murray, her brilliant younger brother Charles Wallace, and her friend Calvin. They travel through time and space to rescue Meg's father, who is held prisoner by dark forces on the planet of Camazotz. "A Wrinkle in Time" is a good read aloud book. Children in 4th grade through 7th grade can learn about the battle between good and evil and the power of love from this science fiction and fantasy book.
