Rediscover an American classic with this special deluxe edition of the Newbery Award–winning children's series—starring the iconic time traveling heroine, Meg MurryThis Library of America volume presents Madeleine L'Engle's iconic classic A Wrinkle in Time, one of the most beloved and influential novels for young readers ever written, in a newly-prepared authoritative text and, as a special feature, it includes never-before-seen deleted passages from the novel in an appendix. L'Engle's unforgettable heroine, Meg Murry, must confront her fears and self-doubt to rescue her scientist father, who has been experimenting with mysterious tesseracts capable of bending the very fabric of space and time. Helping her are her little brother Charles Wallace and her friend Calvin O'Keefe, and a trio of strange supernatural visitors called Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Which. But A Wrinkle in Time was only the beginning of the adventure. Seven other Kairos ("cosmic time") novels followed, collected for the first time in a deluxe two volume collector's boxed set. This first volume gathers Wrinkle with three books that chronicle the continuing adventures of Meg and her siblings. In A Wind in the Door, Meg and Calvin descend into the microverse to save Charles Wallace from the Echthroi, evil beings who are trying to unname existence. When a madman threatens nuclear war in A Swiftly Tilting Planet, Charles Wallace must save the future by traveling into the past. And in Many Waters, Sandy and Dennys, Meg's twin brothers, are accidentally transported back to the time of Noah's ark. |

The books do deal with some horror elements and elements that need a degree of emotional maturity. They are an easier read than, say The Hobbit but one can read The Hobbit to kids earlier. The main antagonist in AWIT is described in the book as "the happiest sadist" and for a children's book, fully lives up to that description.

Opera movie = garbage
2003 Movie = not great, divergent from the book, gets some things right somethings wrong. Reminded me of an episode of Doctor Who from the same time period.

...freaking Oprah.
The 2003 made for TV movie.
I watched the movie for the heck of it not expecting it much and ... it wasn't the worst movie ever.

F**kin awesome!
The first one is a Newberry Award winner and if you've ever read any of these books, you probably realize they're not always bubble gum and puppies, so bear in mind when you contemplate any one person's opinion.
