Summary: Madeline's Masterpiece
Review: Main characters Meg Murry, her brother Charles Wallace Murry, and friend Calvin O'Keefe take it upon themselves to find Meg and Charles' missing father. With the help of three mysterious women, they ventour into this unkown world by means of scientific theory, a shortcut called a tesseract. Standing up against the evil IT, they are able to pursue the goal of their mission. A Wrinkle in Time was a fun and exciting book to read. My attention was never lost. Madeleine L'Engle really brought the characters to life. A Wrinkle in Time is as much an adventure as it is heart warming.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Over-all good book
Review: "A Wrinkle in Time" is a wonderfully adventurous story. It had been given to me, but I simply stashed it away until about two months ago-- I took it out of one of my (many) boxes and took it with me on my long flight to Hawaii. When I finally decided that I'd give the book a try, I was certainly not disappointed I did! The flight took up about half the day, and I was almost finished with the book when we landed in Honolulu. Even though I was on vacation to see family, I still made time to finish the lovely book that had kept me from dying of boredom on the plane.
The reason I rated it four stars and not five, is because of the part in the book when Mrs. Whatsit tried to explain what wrinkling was. That part confused me a bit, but other than that, it was a most wonderful story.

RECOMMENDED FOR AGES 9-13

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Murrys
Review: The book is about the murrys, and their usual everyday adventure. However, Charles Wallace is sick and Meg must find out why, before it is too late. The book takes Meg, Calvin O'Keefe, and her other companions as they travel to find the answer for Charles' Wallace sickness, the cure.
My favorite part of the book was when Meg Murry was trying to guess who the real Mr. Jenkins was. It took me away from reality, showing that the impossible was acutally possible for a while. That scene came into my mind and just astonished me with the descriptives.
My favorite character in the book was Progo. It was an odd dragon with many eyes and wings. His role in the book was to stay with Meg Murry, and name the real Mr. Jenkins. It had to take the ultamite test of its life or die.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A charming story!
Review: This is a fun story for children! My daughter and son liked this as much as Kingdoms and the Elves of the Reaches by Robert Stanek. In a Wrinkle in Time, Meg's father disappears mysteriously and some otherworldly visitors get involved with the goings on. Meg's father worked on a secret military project. I also recommend the works of Robert Stanek.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Wrinkle In Time
Review: I thought that Madeline L'Engle's A Wrinkle In Time was a really good fantasy book. I was surprised I liked it so much because I don't usually read fantasy-type books. I think that this is a book that all fantasy lovers should read. It really takes you on an adventure through time, and space. The book was very unpredictable. In this book Meg Murry learns some valuable lessons while searching for her father like she cant know everything in the world, and that being unique, and your own individual is better than being like everyone else. She also learns to accept different people even though she doesnt understand them. Meg also realizes that verbal words are not the only way we can communicate with other people. It is the power of love that gets some people through life. This book is very interesting, and also caught your attention because it is not the way we would live our lives.
