This science fiction book holds up well despite having been written fifty
years ago, and was probably quite radical at the time.
The names of Mrs Which, Mrs Who and Mrs Whatsit prevented a lasting
connection and identification. How can you distinguish between these
names?
The characters were all quite human… Calvin had a very human element to
him. Meg's father didn't end up being the saviour that she hoped him to be.
Charles Wallace is more than he appears?
The famous quotes throughout the book helped add an extra flavour.
Illustrations of the wrinkle were brilliantly simple and vital to help with
understanding the concept of interplanetary travel.
The ending of the book was too abrupt - and is the downfall of the novel.
