Ms. L'Engle's great contribution here is the sympathy she generates for her collection of misfits. Somehow we have no trouble believing in the odd qualities of the Murray children, and we come to see their sometimes troublesome uniqueness as a positive thing. It helps that none of them avoid being annoying on occasion. Her book speaks volumes to the many children and teens who see themselves as hopeless outsiders.

What we see of the personalities of the three "Mrs" characters is also very well done. From the fun-loving Mrs. Whatsit to the awesome Mrs. Which, they have individual quirks and traits, quite an accomplishment in introducing such beings.

All in all, an excellent introduction to L'Engle's fantasy universe and its consistent lesson of the redeeming power of love. ( )

Although I did like the story, I had a hard time getting past how annoying Meg was. I almost think I thought too much about the underlying meaning it had and failed to truly enjoy it. I almost wish I had read this as a child vs. an adult. ( )

It all started with L’Engle’s classic children’s tale A Wrinkle in Time. At the time, my curiousity was kindled because L’Engle’s masterpiece was instrumental in an old lover’s youth and I wished to familiarize myself with this muse of sorts. Years later, I bought A Wrinkle in Time and got hooked. Soon followed A Wind in the Door, A Swiftly Tilting Planet, and Many Waters. Before I knew it, I was immersed deeply in this fantastic, whimsical, and avant-garde series of children’s adventures. It has been several months since my ardent travels through the Murry family’s space and time travels concluded yet I feel just as excited as ever. The award-winning L’Engle has encompassed wonder, filial love, and adventure in the series which shall continue to resonate with kids across the globe for generations to come.

What can be stated here about this wonderful story that hasn't ben stated prior. It is a classic for a good reason. I love the Sci Fi adventure aspects of this story but the characters from Charles Wallace, Meg and the Mrs.'s all make for a wonderful story of adventure, love, temptation, choices, and it is all wrapped up so beautifully in the writing style of Ms. L'Engle. If only we could travel that quickly...only in our imaginations, being guided by literature like this.

Descrição do livro

Amazon.com (ISBN 0440498058, Paperback)

Everyone in town thinks Meg Murry is volatile and dull-witted, and that her younger brother, Charles Wallace, is dumb. People are also saying that their physicist father has run off and left their brilliant scientist mother. Spurred on by these rumors and an unearthly stranger, the tesseract-touting Mrs Whatsit, Meg and Charles Wallace and their new friend Calvin O'Keefe embark on a perilous quest through space to find their father. In doing so, they must travel behind the shadow of an evil power that is darkening the cosmos, one planet at a time. This is no superhero tale, nor is it science fiction, although it shares elements of both. The travelers must rely on their individual and collective strengths, delving deep within themselves to find answers.

A well-loved classic and 1963 Newbery Medal winner, Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time is sophisticated in concept yet warm in tone, with mystery and love coursing through its pages. Meg's shattering, yet ultimately freeing, discovery that her father is not omnipotent provides a satisfying coming-of-age element. Readers will feel a sense of power as they travel with these three children, challenging concepts of time, space, and the triumph of good over evil. The companion books in the Time quartet, continuing the adventures of the Murry family, are A Wind in the Door; A Swiftly Tilting Planet, which won the American Book Award; and Many Waters. Every young reader should experience L'Engle's captivating, occasionally life-changing contributions to children's literature. (Ages 9 and older) --Emilie Coulter
