When Charles Wallace Murry goes searching through a 'wrinkle in time' for his lost father, he finds himself on an evil planet where all life is enslaved by a huge pulsating brain known as 'It'. How Charles, his sister Meg and friend Calvin find and free his father makes this a very special and exciting mixture of fantasy and science fiction, which all the way through is dominated by the funny and mysterious trio of guardian angels known as Mrs Whatsit, Mrs Who and Mrs Which.

"A Wrinkle in Time" is a wonderful read starring pure, loveable, cinnamon roll characters. It’s filled with friendship and family. Not to mention, there are actual adults present!
"A Wrinkle in Time" subverts expectations and stereotypes. It demonstrates that the standard school system doesn’t work for everyone, you don’t have to understand something to accept it, and it’s okay to be vulnerable, emotional, to cry – girl or boy.
Though first published over 40 years ago, "A Wrinkle in Time" is still relevant and enjoyable today. - Melissa (QBD)
