A Wrinkle in time is about a teenage girl named Meg Murry and her little brother Charles Wallace. The people in her town are always whispering about the Murry family and how the scientist and their kids aren’t “normal.” Then one day Meg and Charles’s father disappears and no one knows why or where he went.
Then one stormy night, Meg goes down to the kitchen to get something to eat when her little brother Charles and her mom let in an old hag. This hag and her two friends become the children’s biggest allies. They then set out on the biggest adventure of their lives to travel the universe, and meet new people, including Calvin O’Keefe, who quickly become their best friend. Meg learns that the qualities that make her unbearable to outsiders are just the qualities she needs to help the doomed planet Camazotz, help her brother find himself, and save her father from IT.
This was an excellent book that I would recommend to anybody. Madeleine teaches that what strangers may see as bad characteristics, may turn out to be the characteristics you need to help the people you care about. She also teaches that no matter what don’t give up, even if it is against impossible odds, and to trust and rely on your friends and your allies. This was a very well written book with characters I could easily relate to. It is a winner of a Newberry Medal and is highly acclaimed by all ages. I give “A Wrinkle in Time” four stomps out of 5.
