Wow, what a memory... I read that book in fifth grade English class, and I thought it was so bizarre and wonderful and just like an RPG.  Certain memories stick out, like I remember there was a brother who was psychic... he knew his sister was coming down for breakfast at a certain time or something.  Also, there was a lady who had magic glasses... Ms. Who!  That's it, Ms. Who had magic glasses and if you put them on you could pass through the barrier to the final boss.  The boss was  a brain of some sort, but they defeated him with the power of... love!  Right, the brother was under mind control I think, and they made him remember who he was.  Oh man, is any of this accurate or am I making it all up??  I don't even remember, I read the book 10 years ago!

LOL!!!!! Some of it your right, some your WAY off!!!! LOL I think you're right about the brother and partially right about Ms Who's glasses. I'm also remembering something about space folding or tesseracting (I think I just butchered the spelling) God, It's been so long!!

GREAT, GREAT book.  I still read it several times a year.  That and "The Neverending Story" by Michael Ende.  That remains my favorite book ever written.

Wow, digging up an oldie,huh? But an oldie I somewhat remember! XD The teacher actually read chapters to us every day in fifth grade English. Unfortunately I don't remember the actual story off the top of my head now. ^^;; But I did like it.

Has anyone read the other two books in the series?  After I read A wrinkle in time in the fifth grade I went and found the other two books.  They are "A wind in the door." and "A swiftly tilting planet".  It's really an awesome trilogy.  In the second one they travel into charles'...the little brother...body because he's sick.  In the third one Charles is in highschool and he travels through time to save the world from war.  It's pretty cool even if I don't summarize it well.

Man, I loved A Wrinkle in Time... I read that in 5th grade as well!!!

All I remember is the "ending." Well... just the final world they went to. It was... creepy to me.

*balls bouncing in perfect sync*

*shudders*



Later... when I first played Metroid Prime, the Metroid's reminded me of the giant brain ^^; That game just creeps me out...


Happy reading!!! ^_^

Ah, that brain gave me nightmares when I was little...

"She [Meg] blinked her eyes rapidly and against the rythym until the redness before them cleared and she could see. There was the brain, there was IT, lying pulsing and quivering on the dais, soft and exposed and nauseating. Charles Wallace was crouched beside IT, his eyes still slowly twirling, his jaw still slack, as she had seen him before, with a tic in his forehead reiterating the revolting rythym of IT."

How could that NOT freak poor little me out? [I still have the book right here in my room, lol. AND a swiftly tilting planet]
