Madeleine L'Engle's ground-breaking science fiction and fantasy classic now a major motion
picture. It was a dark and stormy night Meg Murry her small brother Charles Wallace and her
mother had come down to the kitchen for a midnight snack when they were upset by the arrival of
a most disturbing stranger. Wild nights are my glory the unearthly stranger told them. I just
got caught in a downdraft and blown off course. Let me sit down for a moment and then I'll be
on my way. Speaking of ways by the way there is such a thing as a tesseract. A tesseract (in
case the reader doesn't know) is a wrinkle in time. To tell more would rob the reader of the
enjoyment of Miss L'Engle's unusual book. A Wrinkle in Time winner of the Newbery Medal in
1963 is the story of the adventures in space and time of Meg Charles Wallace and Calvin
O'Keefe (athlete student and one of the most popular boys in high school). They are in search
of Meg's father a scientist who disappeared while engaged in secret work for the government on
the tesseract problem. A Wrinkle in Time is the winner of the 1963 Newbery Medal. It is the
first book in The Time Quintet which consists of A Wrinkle in Time A Wind in the Door A
Swiftly Tilting Planet Many Waters and An Acceptable Time. A Wrinkle in Time is now a movie
from Disney directed by Ava DuVernay starring Storm Reid Oprah Winfrey Reese Witherspoon
and Mindy Kaling. This title has Common Core connections. Praise for A Wrinkle in Time: A
Wrinkle in Time is one of my favorite books of all time. I've read it so often I know it by
heart. Meg Murry was my hero growing up. I wanted glasses and braces and my parents to stick me
in an attic bedroom. And I so wanted to save Charles Wallace from IT. -Meg Cabot A book that
every young person should read a book that provides a road map for seeking knowledge and
compassion even at the worst of times a book to make the world a better place. -Cory Doctorow
