A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle is a good book because it explains an interesting topic well- time traveling, and through children's point of view. My favorite thing about this book is that the setting takes place in different realistic locations making it seem like normal reality, but there are certain things that make it fantasy. It was a little confusing, but once you understand it, A Wrinkle in Time is better than most books.

This book is incredible. I love it so much. The way it portrays how smart her younger brother is and her troubles in school. The book is written very well and it is a good book for all ages. I will love this book forever and I think everyone should read it, both boys and girls of all ages.

Hmmm I like the book so magical! I thought it would be better if it's not so random. Other than that the book deserves 3 stars!! 🤗

I read the first few chapters. It was very good!

Not very good , it was very confusing. I couldn't quite understand it because the book didn't make any sense.
