They have to find their father while many obsticals are in their way. They get help by three ladies (Ms. Whatsit, Ms. Who, and Ms. Which). I liked this book because it is filled with action and the main characters were really fighting for what they believed in.

Summary: Definately a time wrinkler!
Review: Meg, her brother Charles Wallace, and their neighbor, Calvin, embark on a geand mission to save the universe from the Black Thing. With the help of Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Which, the trio is able to save Meg and Charles's father from the grasps of the Thing. As they are in the process of rescuing father, Charles Wallace is taken captive by the Thing through brain waves. Charles is not himself, he only thinks the thoughts of the Thing. While Meg and Calvin and Father try to regain Charles's composure, they find out what the Thing is. It is a brain, a huge ball of grey matter, that sucks the originality out of everyone it comes in contact with. Meg's father realizes that Meg is the only one who can save Charles from the powerful mind of the Thing, and she bravely steps up to the plate. She only has one thing that IT doesn't have; love. As she expresses her love for Charles, he slowly comes to, and quickly follows a joyous reunion.

Summary: Multi-Leveled & Multi-Layered. . . .
Review: A WRINKLE IN TIME is one of those rare "children's" books that I keep in a consistent rotation to read every few years (Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry & The Phantom Tollbooth being two others). It is so much fun to read the novel as just a futuristic fantasy story, with touches of science and sociology thrown in: dimensions, misfits, love conquering hate, etc. Although overworked lately, time travel was quite state-of-the-art for when the book was written and published, and L'Engle approaches the topic from a scientific perspective, through the five dimentions, rather than a fantastic one. As successfully as L'Engle presents these timeless themes and ideas, she also does a spectacular job of presenting some major symbolism, very biblical and spiritual in nature, as well.Mrs. Which, Mrs. Whatsit, and Mrs. Who so clearly represent the trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, respectively): Mrs. Which with her booming voice and mulit-lettered pattern of speech, clearly the leader of the triad; Mrs. Whatsit, taking on a human form despite her other-worldliness, being the mediator between Mrs. Which and the children; Mrs. Who, never quite appearing, represented only by her glasses, using the words of others to communicate whenever possible. It's beautiful. The obvious struggle between good and evil (with love being the ultimate weapon), the "fallen" stars, the Black Thing, and the mind control of IT all serve as classic biblical symbols. L'Engle uses multiple scripture references, particularly through Mrs. Who's quotes, to convey her messages of love, hope, and strength. She does all of this with a remarkable subtlety and tact. She does not intend to offend, nor does she---the story stands by itself. If one wants to delve deeper, however, the symbolism is there to be dug out. Truly great books can be read many times on different levels, with different reactions and interpretations from different readers. Ms. L'Engle provides readers of all ages, reading levels, backgrounds, and thinking skills with a gold mine of material in this book and its sequels (none of which quite match this one for overall quality, although they are well worth reading!).

Summary: A Wrinkle In Time
Review: A Wrinkle In Time is about a girl named Meg and her brother Charles Wallace that is very smart but doesn't talk to anyone at school. Everyone at school thinks that Charles and Meg are stupid.
There father is gone on a secret mission but hasn't retried back for a long time and the family is getting worried. Until one day Mrs. Which, Mrs. Who, Mrs. Whitest come to Meg's home and tesseract with Meg, Charles Wallace, and there friend Calvin who is very popular in school because of sports. Tesseract is where a person goes through time in the 5 dimension. Which means if a piece string is time, and is laid out is not the easiest putting the ends of the string next to each other and jumping over the gap is the easiest way to travel.
This book was interesting to me because it had some time traveling and was very exciting.
:) THIS BOOK WAS A GOOD BOOK FOR ALL AGES :)

Summary: A Wrinkle in Time
Review: Madeleine L'Engle has made a new fan, me. Her book A Wrinkle in Time is so far the best book I have ever read. I really liked the plot and the main details, like how she described the characters' emotions, and how she described how everything looked. It was just great writing! I am definately going to read another of L'Engle's books.
