A Wrinkle In Time
This is probably L’Engle’s most famous children’s book. The Murry father, a scientist working on a top-secret project, disappears. Through a series of out-of-this world (and solar system) events, which are (well and seriously done, some of the Murry children discover and rescue him, facing peril, adventure, and self-revelation along the way.
This book has elements that will appeal to a range of readers. There is science, time travel, family, an awkward teenager, and a mystery. There are some challenging and even confusing concepts, done purposefully, that do not have easy explanations.
