Booktalk: Open-Ended

Could Meg Murry's life get any stranger? Her dad works for the government and went missing over a year ago. Her five-year-old brother is a genius and maybe more, who has eccentric and mysterious friends. Now Meg must travel through time with her best friend, her brother, and his friends Mrs. Who, Mrs. Whatsit, and Mrs. Which to save her father from the evil force, The Dark Thing. Can she save her father and survive traveling through A Wrinkle in Time?
