Summary: don't buy it!
Review: This is an absolutely horrible book. Torture. We bought this as a book on tape to listen to in the car with the kids on a summer trip. All of us (40 yo, 38 yo, 14 yo, 11 yo) were miserable. We forced ourselves to listen to the whole thing because it's a "classic" and we kept thinking maybe we'd eventually get to some part of the story that would finally explain to us why people like it. During the story, my 14 yo observed that one of the reasons she hated the story was that the author seemed to try as hard as she could to sound intelligent to the listener (reader), but it just came across as annoying. We all ended up hoping that the characters would die in outer space.

Summary: exciting yet mysterious
Review: I really liked this book because it has suspense, excitement, grief AND romance! All of the different emotions in this book let YOU choose how to feel in certain parts of A Wrinkle in Time. But sometimes you get caught up in all these emotions and you get a little confused , like sometimes I didn't know what to think of Aunt Beast,Calvin,or even Charles Wallace! If you are looking for an exciting yet mysterious book or even just a fun book, you better get A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'engle! Remember, a 4 star book is a good book!

Summary: A Wrinkle in Time by Rodfligy
Review: Have you ever wanted to travel in time to a different planet? That is exactly what happens in the book A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'engle. Charles Wallace, a very gifted and talented boy, makes friends with some very strange occupants of an old broken down shack in the middle of the woods which leads to a mysterious leave of Charles' father, missing bed sheets, and a trip in time.
An unusual midnight visit by Charles Wallace's' friend, Mrs. Who, unveils the truth about where their father went. He had traveled in time, or tesseracted to another time. Tesseracting in the book is also known as a wrinkle in time. One day Charles Wallace, Meg, and her friend, Calvin, venture to Mrs. Who's' house and find that Mrs. Who does not live alone. She lives with her so-called friends, Mrs. Whatsit and Mrs. Which. Meg is puzzled when the three offer a trip in time. However, she then realizes these are no ordinary humans. Meg accepts the offer, and the six of them swirl off to another time.
Unfortunately, the three women are lost in the swirl of the tesseract and the children are left to venture the universe alone. The three children land on a strange planet named Camatotz where everything is perfectly aligned. For example, when one child goes out to bounce a ball, every child goes outside. When the three musketeers go up to a house to ask for help, all the doors on the street open simultaneously. The people are then scared of them because there are not 30 of them up and down the street. The people warn them that if they are not in line soon IT will do away with them.
You will believe you are experiencing the actual events if you read the book A Wrinkle in Time, by Madeleine L'engle.

Summary: Complex Reading
Review: I first read this book when I was in junior high school and when one of my co-workers mentioned it again I had to read it for a second time. The books plot is pretty complex for being so short. The plot is even hard to explain without telling everything, which would take awhile. Let's put it this way if you like science fiction and fantasy you will probably like this, and if you don't what the heck get the cheap paperback version. It's worth a shot!!!

Summary: Challenging, but rewarding
Review: My daughter is currently reading A Wrinkle in Time for her 4th grade literature class. Often she has a tough time getting through the assigned number of pages. She sometimes says the book is "too hard," yet after she finishes a chapter, she very enthusiastically relates its plot to me. I believe that this is a good challenge for her and that it will ultimately prepare her for more complex literary adventures down the road.

A Wrinkle in Time By Madeline L'Engle A Wrinkle in Time, by Madeline L'Engle is a great, interesting book. This book is about a girl named Meg, a boy named Charles Wallace, and a boy named Calvin. Meg, who's younger brother is Charles Wallace, loses her father who mysteriously disapears. While he is gone, an odd stranger arrives at Meg's and Charles's house who's name is Mrs. Watsit. Could this lady have anything to do with their father's disapearance? Will Meg's father eventually come home? It is up to Meg, Charles Wallace, and Meg's friend, Calvin to find him. Together they go through adventures through time and space.
This book is one of the best books of all time! There is a lot of suspense, which is why I like to read this book. I wanted to know what happened to Meg's father. Was he alive? Was he dead? I also liked how there is many details. It gives me a better comprehension of what is happening and what everything looks like. The words are very complexed and challenging, which is another reason why I like this book.
I reccomend A Wrinkle in Time to advaned readers who enjoy reading fiction, science fiction, fantasy, and mystery books. A Wrinkle in Time is a great book!!
