Anyone read A wrinkle in Time (Madeleine L'engle)?read it recently as tradebook IT'S SHEER BRILLIANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've read it but don't remember it very well. *muses* I do recall that it was a slightly odd and quite good book, though. Was there something in it about a man with red eyes? Forgive me if that wasn't part of the book but for some reason that jumped out at me O.o I do tend to mix up books, though, so don't call me crazy if it's not.

Good books, those. Wrinkle in Time, Swiftly Tilting Planet...hours of entertainment, heh.

Ooh! I love those books! Its actually a series, you know... or somewhat like one. A Wrinkle in Time, umm... I can't think of any others right now. But my favorite would probably be Deep Water (?) It focuses on the Twins, so I don't class it as a Meg and Charles. Hah. I'm strange.

Heh, I read that book, and it gave me a few ideas on dimensional travel and stuff... I think. That's the book where at one point they go to a 1-D world, right? I don't remember much, it was like 6 years ago.

I've never read the sequels, but I love A Wrinkle in Time. A few years ago I penned a sort of summary:

Charles Wallace, son and sport,
crossed time and space to find
his father, but in youthful pride
allowed IT in his mind.

Meg the oddball was upset
by sudden, chilling vaults,
but she remembered she had love,
and -- thank the stars -- her faults.

nice poem/summary they say Madeleine L'engle was writing a sequel (The Eyes begin to see) before she got really sick.doesn't say if she's going to continue it or not

Excellent books. I read A Wind in the Door for a book report when I was in 1st grade and ended up confusing everyone, teacher included^^ That's probably one of the reasons why it's my favorite

ist grade?i read it in fith and it got every body except me confuled.

Heh...I've always been ahead of the class. No one else in my school reads

Heh, which grade are you in? In my 11th grade LA class, most of the class could barely read. That's about the saddest thing I've seen.

I'm in 9th grade, but I skipped ahead a year so I should be in 8th

remember?FATHER!!!!!!!!

I have this friend that is the opposite of me, she only reads stuff that has to do about math.

I read that book in like, 4th grade but I really couldn't tell you what it was about because I don't remember xD

OMG I love those books! I've read A Wrinkle in Time so many times... and yes, there is something to do with a Man with Red Eyes, and they went to a 2-D planet, not a 1-D one. The sequels are as followed:
1. A Wrinkle in Time
2. A Wind in the Door
3. Many Waters
4. A Swiftly Tilting Planet
5. An Acceptable Time

I love that book! I lost my copy, I need to check it out soon............. Apparently Disney made a movie of it. I saw bookmarks with pictures in the library.. I'm not going to try and see it. I mean, Calvin doesn't have red hair. They probably got a bunch of the scientific aspects wrong too. Some books shouldn't be movies.................
