This special edition of A Wrinkle in Time includes a new essay that explores the science behind the fantasy.
Rediscover one of the most beloved children's books of all time: A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle:

Meg Murray, her little brother Charles Wallace, and their mother are having a midnight snack on a dark and stormy night when an unearthly stranger appears at their door. He claims to have been blown off course, and goes on to tell them that there is such a thing as a "tesseract," which, if you didn't know, is a wrinkle in time.

Meg's father had been experimenting with time-travel when he suddenly disappeared. Will Meg, Charles Wallace, and their friend Calvin outwit the forces of evil as they search through space for their father?

I'm not quite sure what annoyed me so much, but I kept wishing and wishing that they'd just get on with things. I suppose Meg was a bit too much like any emo angsty teen for my tastes.

    An imaginative, YA, sci-fi tale. I remember reading this as a child too.

  • Among "children's" books, the Wrinkle in Time trilogy is by far the best. Read it all hundreds of times, and still found it pretty good when I re-read it last year. All those children who later went on to read Huxley and Orwell must have smiled, recalling the parallel worlds in WIT...
