Jr. Book Club: A Wrinkle in Time

Ages 7–11: Thirteen-year-old Meg Murray feels like an outcast—despite her intelligence, she gets into fights at school, her peers bully her, and she has to ignore the rumors about her missing father. One stormy night, an oddly dressed woman shows up at the Murray house with knowledge about her father’s top-secret work. The next day, Meg, her brother Charles Wallace, and her schoolmate Calvin seek out the eccentric visitor to learn more, only to be whisked through space and time by Mrs. Whatsit and her otherworldly companions on a mission to rescue Meg’s father and save the universe in Madeleine L’Engle’s ground-breaking science fiction fantasy classic A Wrinkle in Time.
