Annotation:

A Wrinkle in Time, a classic novel now adapted into a graphic novel for readers aged 13-17 years.

Meg Murray, her brother Charles, their friend Calvin and the three Mrs's Who, Whatsit and Which (supernatural beings) are the main characters that take us on journey to rescue Meg and Charles's father who has disappeared while working for the government.

The three Mrs sweep the three children to the planet of Camazotz where Mr Murray is being held and where they find that a dark force 'black thing' now threatens the universe.

The concept explored throughout the story is tessering where people can travel great distances through space and time faster than the speed of light. An exciting way to travel.

The reader is drawn to black and white panels that are accented with limited blue colour.

A page turning book any sci-fi fan should find a hit that reflects a brilliant adventure of time and space.
