A movie tie-in edition of A Wrinkle in Time, now a major motion picture--with an introduction by director Ava DuVernay. In 1962, Madeleine L’Engle debuted her novel A Wrinkle in Time, which would go on to win the 1963 Newbery Medal. Bridging science and fantasy, darkness and light, fear and friendship, the story became a classic of children’s literature and is beloved around the world. Now Disney is taking it to the silver screen! With an all-star cast that includes Oprah Winfrey, Reese Withersp

Our Review

This classic science fantasy novel introduces young readers to the concept of tesseracts and interdimensional travel through the gripping quest of Meg Murry to rescue her missing father. The story masterfully blends quantum physics with timeless themes of good versus evil, creating an intellectually stimulating adventure that challenges young minds to think beyond conventional boundaries. Meg's journey across the universe to confront the darkness of IT on the planet Camazotz remains as compelling today as when it first won the Newbery Medal in 1963.

This special movie edition, featuring an introduction by director Ava DuVernay, offers a perfect gateway for a new generation of readers to discover this groundbreaking work. The story's exploration of nonconformity, courage in the face of fear, and the power of love makes it particularly valuable for children who feel different or struggle with self-acceptance. Young readers will find themselves deeply invested in Meg's transformation from an insecure girl to a confident heroine who learns to embrace her unique strengths.
