I bought and read this book on recommendation from a friend, knowing that it was written for the young teenagers back in the 60's. The characters and story were lively, and moved right along. The story follows a common theme: good vs. evil, and also parallels The Wizard of Oz. I did find it interesting that the depiction of 'evil' in this story has every feature of communism, absolute power and control over everything. Read it, I think you'll see the same communist agenda and tactics that are surfacing in US culture, society and politics.

I bought these books for my granddaughters class so each kid could have their own copy to read and not have to share. The books were a good deal, arrived quickly and were in good condition. This book is a good read for 10-13 year olds.

Despite opening with the most clichéd line in fiction, Madeleine L'Engle has written one of the most not only engaging and exciting works of fiction, but one that is from a quantum physics standpoint, before her time. It is thought provoking as well as entertaining. Adults and children alike can enjoy this well spun tale of the eternal battle of good and evil. Before Harry Potter came on the scene, the Wrinkle in Time books (yes, books, plural) were delighting readers. The difference is, there wasn't social media at the time to help generate the buzz that Harry Potter got. Ler's hope the up=coming film does the book justice and will encourage a new generation to pick up the books to read them for themselves. I know they are what turned my son on to reading.
