The 50th Anniversary Commemorative Edition of Madeleine L'Engle's
ground-breaking science fiction and fantasy classic, now a major motion
picture.
Fifty years ago, Madeleine L'Engle introduced the world to A Wrinkle in
Time and the wonderful and unforgettable characters Meg and Charles
Wallace Murry, and their friend Calvin O'Keefe.
When the children learn that Mr. Murry has been captured by the Dark
Thing, they time travel to Camazotz, where they must face the leader IT
in the ultimate battle between good and evil--a journey that threatens
their lives and our universe.
A Newbery Award winner, A Wrinkle in Time is an iconic novel that
continues to inspire millions of fans around the world. This special
edition has been redesigned and includes an introduction by Katherine
Paterson, an afterword by Madeleine L'Engle's granddaughter Charlotte
Jones Voiklis that includes photographs and memorabilia, the author's
Newbery Medal acceptance speech, and other bonus materials.

**Praise for *A Wrinkle in Time:
"A Wrinkle in Time is one of my favorite books of all time. I've read
it so often, I know it by heart. Meg Murry was my hero growing up. I
wanted glasses and braces and my parents to stick me in an attic
bedroom. And I so wanted to save Charles Wallace from IT." --Meg Cabot
"A book that every young person should read, a book that provides a road
map for seeking knowledge and compassion even at the worst of times, a
book to make the world a better place." --Cory Doctorow
"[L'Engle's] work is one of the things that made me a writer, a
science fiction and fantasy fan, an avid reader. Hers were the first
books I read that mixed math and magic, the quest and the quantum."
--Scott Westerfeld
"A Wrinkle in Time taught me that you can tackle even the deepest and
most slippery concepts of physics and philosophy in fiction for young
readers. It's a great lesson for all writers, and a tough tesseract to
follow." --David Lubar
