A Wrinkle in Time is one of my favorite books. That said, when I heard there was a graphic novel coming out based on the book, I was thrilled. However, my expectations were not met with this version. Maybe this is because A Wrinkle in Time (original) is so close to my heart. But certain images ...

Wonderful graphic adaptation. I like the black/white/blue coloring, only I wish she'd made the Red Eyed Man's eyes red... (and on the color, Calvin's eyes are green and they're supposed to be blue, but minor quibble).

OK I never read the original and apparently I need to? Because this is totally weird and much different than what I was expecting?

People are also saying tha...

I appreciate Hope Larson's effort at adapting this novel but I wonder if anyone involved in the project asked themselves why it should be done. A Wrinkle in Time is already a perfect story. Why does it need a graphic adaptation? Why mess with perfection? It's like remaking Casablanca. It's superfluo...

I have a vivid memory of the day I picked A Wrinkle in Time from my elementary school library. I had never heard of it before, but the description sounded like something I wanted to read. I had no idea how much I would fall in love with that book. A Wrinkle in Time had a huge influence on me as a re...

A children's fantasy in the vein of C.S. Lewis' Narnia series, or even Out of the Silent Planet, or more recently Philip Pullman. It's a little preachy at times (though not nearly so much so as Pullman), but it's hard to argue with a moral that says "Love is good, hate is bad" and "we are all indivi...
