Summary: Meg Murry and her friends become involved with unearthly strangers and search for Meg's father, who has disappeared while engaged in secret work for the government.
Strengths: It is an easy read with the print being extremely big and visible to readers. Each chapter has both a title and a corresponding number. It is an extremely magical book and I had a hard time putting it down.
Concerns: If trying to teach realism to children, this is not the book to demonstrate those concepts.
Age level: Upper (5-6), Middle
Classroom Use: Teaches children about fictional fantasies
The font size and chapter titles are much less important than the theme, characterizations, and plot. What did you think about those aspects of A Wrinkle in Time?
