This book wasn't really that excited and once I finished it, I watched the movie (which wasn't that good either).

I liked this book but I would rather other books. I liked how it emphasised IT all the time and gave every character a simple name and not a super complicated name. I would recommend this book to 10-14 year olds.

This was an amazing book, the vocabulary was quite complicated with words like "unadulterated", so I really enjoyed the challenge. It was a fiction book and my favourite part was when Meg and Calvin found their father. My favourite character was Meg because she is really brave. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who in interested in space and time travel.

The book made me feel sad at times because the Dark Thing nearly killed one of the characters.My favourite character is Aunt Beast.She was very caring.I would definitely recommend this book. Although it was sad it was a good book.

I loved the part where they went through a black portal, I was SO STUNNED to see that Miss Who and Miss Whatsit were unicorns, I was literally gaping in awe in real life! I recommend it to people who enjoy the genre of adventures.

I thought this book was amazing!, I rate it 5/5. It is even better than the film as it has more characters and more detail! My favourite person was Calvin because he always stuck up for Meg when he had only just met her! They had a great friendship. My favourite part was when Meg saved Charles Wallace from 'It'. I would most definately recommend!!

Amazing. Time travel, magic, shape shifters and a lot more of the good stuff. If you know the qualities of a good book, times that by 100, add a bit more, and have the equivalent of this book. This book was incredibly thought out, the storyline was fantastic, and how the author worded it was just better. It’s just too bad the author can’t see the words of praise for this book.

I think that A Wrinkle In Time is a good book, with an interesting story set in space and different dimensions.

I liked Meg the best since she tried her hardest to save her little brother although she could have died. Reading this book was really fun and I would definitely recommend it to someone else.

It was really descriptive and it was easy to picture what was going on! There were some sinister twists

This book had a lot of weird words in it and endeavour which I liked

I actually read An Acceptable Time by Madeleine L'Engle, which is in this series. It's about a girl called Polly who accidentally travels backwards in time. The ancient tribe of The People of the Wind were hospitable to Polly and helped her save her friend. This book is a mixture of adventure and science fiction and it has a few scientific facts woven into the story which I found intriguing.

It’s a book I’ve picked myself to buy in a bookshelf because I liked the information on the back and I was right. It’s really cool and I think it’s perfect for children my age (11)
