Review: This book is great.I mean more then great.More then ifinity great if there was such a thing.I'd give it the biggest number of stars if I could.In it,Meg, who is a teenager,and her little brother Charles Walluce, who is so smart, everybody can't understand him and think he's dumb.But one rainy day,when Charles dissapears Meg knows she has to find him.So she goes out into the rain, and sets out.In her front yard she meets a snake who is very smart and involved in magic. It is her twin brothers Sandy's and Denny's.Then along the way she meets Calvin, smart and very different from his brothers.He has orange hair and is very nice. He becomes Meg's best friend for a lifetime.Then, in the rainy night she finds Charles and he shows her their black houndog who was smelling something,and turns out to be a very powerful dragon like animal who came from space and knows magic.From there, their quest begins.If you want to know what happens in their quest which is very exciting, buy this book. And just as it says in the title for the review up above,this book is more then everthing good.I recommand it for everybody.Good luck and happy WRINKLE IN TIME!

Summary: Fun Reading
Review: My son, who is eight has started reading mystical type books, and this book was reccommended. We found it very entertaining. You were anxious to get to the next chapter to see what was happening.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Wonderful Adventure
Review: My name is Amy Stepp, and I am 11 years old. For me it is perfectly hard to find a suitable book for, what I call, the impossible. I've tried lots and lots of books but they never work, except A Wrinkle in Time. It was one of the best books I have ever read and I would recommend this wonderful novel to anyone. Another book that I have read by this author is A Wind in the Door, and I also would recommend this to anyone. Madeleine L'Engle deserves the best the book world can give her, their love and support. Oh yeah, don't forget a great round of applause.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Wrinkle in Time
Review: I loved the book! It was recommended to me by my teacher when I was looking for a book to read after Harry Potter 1,2,and 3. I think that this is a great book if you love fantasy adventures. It was a little hard to follow at first, but I found a character chart on a Madeline L'Engle web site which helped a lot! After the first two chapters I just couldn't put it down. I can't wait to read the sequels.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It was a good book,
Review: A Wrinkle in Time is a great book by Madeleine L'engle. It is about a young girl named Meg Murry, her younger brother Charles Wallace and her friend Calivin O'Keefe. Meg and her brother are hoping for their father to come back. He was a scientist playing with the 5th dimension when he disappeared into space. See how Meg, Calvin, Charles Wallace, Mrs. Who, Mrs Whatsit, and Mrs. Which (three people they meet on the way)outwit the forces of evil to find Meg and Charles Wallace's father. Read this book to find out what happenes. I recommened this book for all ages.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
Review: THIS BOOK WAS THE BEST THING I'VE EVER READ. I AM READING IT AGAIN IN CLASS. I MAY HAVE READ IT BEFORE BUT THE MORE I READ IT, THE BETTER IT GETS. I THINK THAT THE WAY CALVIN AND MEG STARTED OUT WITH EACH OTHER WAS A LITTLE INAPPROPRIATE, WITH HIM HOLDING HER CLOSELY AND ALL. IT WAS STILL A GREAT BOOK AND I GIVE IT A 5 STAR RATING.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best books there is!
Review: This is one of the best books there it. First of the Murry seriese, it's the best one. It deserved every bit of the Newberry prize it recieved, and more. This book requires some thinking ot understand the true meaning of it. It's great as a love story, adventure, sci-fi, fantasy, and fiction. Go Madeleine L'engle!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Probably closer to four and 1/2
Review: This was a great book. It mixed religion, romance, sci-fi, adventure, and good old fantasy into one novel without overwhelming the reader. Many of the books concepts arent childish, making it a great read for adults as well. The one problem: One expects an epic battle between the Brain, the mind-controlled Charles, and Meg. All the reader's get is about two pages. I closed the book feeling something was missing, almost as if this book was lacking around 100 pages. It is almost as if Mrs. L'Engle finished this book just for the sake of finishing it, like one does with say a school assignment that one is tired of. She seemed to have wanted to say more but was just getting sick of writing. This would completely destroy a lesser book, but the rest of this one almost makes up for what its ending lacks. I havent read the other books, but have read some of the synopsis', and it seems as if there is never closure brought to the matter of the shadow. Is IT ever finally dealt with?

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Wrinkle in Time-Real interesting
Review: Meg Murray is a girl that thinks she isn't smart. But one windy and rainy night, her brother, her mother and herself go down to their kitchen to get a midnight snack, when a stranger came to the door and mentions that there is something such as a tesseract, which is a wrinkle in time. Mrs. Whatsit turns out to be the stranger only that Charles knows and takes Meg and her younger brother Charles Wallace and a friend named Calvin through space and the fifth dimension looking for Meg and Charles's father. They must go through many places such as a planet called Camazotz where they have to use their talents to go find their father, which takes them through an adventure of a lifetime.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A clever book for all ages
Review: I read this book back in fifth grade (seven years ago) and have never forgotten it. It is a fantastic story. I regret not reading the rest of the books in the series - if they are anything like this one then they must be great. A great book for any child (though it will be confusing for younger kids).
