THE TIME QUARTET
by Madeleine L'Engle

What do you get when you blend science, mystery, adventure and fantasy? The Time Quartet, Madeline L'Engle's award winning and bestselling series. Each of these four books tells the story of the Murry siblings. While twins Sandy and Dennys are known as the "normal ones," Meg and Charles Wallace are considered weird and slow in the head by the kids at school and unkind adults in town. But together these are the only kids who can help save the earth and humanity from the evil forces adrift in the universe!

L'Engle's books are so engrossing because they focus not just on fantasy worlds and spooky situations, but also on more human things like love, loss, friendship, loneliness and the triumph of good over evil. So join Kidsreads as we tell you all there is to know about A WRINKLE IN TIME, A WIND IN THE DOOR, A SWIFTLY TILTING PLANET and MANY WATERS.
