NEWBERY MEDAL WINNER • TIME MAGAZINE’S 100 BEST FANTASY BOOKS OF ALL TIME • NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM DISNEY " A Wrinkle in Time is one of my favorite books of all time. I've read it so often, I know it by heart." ―Meg Cabot “Know somebody who hasn't met Mrs Whatsit, Mrs Who or Mrs Which? Larson's colorful panels bring Madeleine L'Engle's brilliant time-travel favorite to life in an exciting new way. This is page-turning eye candy of the highest order.” ―James Patterson Late one night, three otherworldly creatures appear and sweep Meg Murry, her brother Charles Wallace, and their friend Calvin O'Keefe away on a mission to save Mr. Murray, who has gone missing while doing top-secret work for the government. They travel via tesseract--a wrinkle that transports one across space and time--to the planet Camazotz, where Mr. Murray is being held captive. There they discover a dark force that threatens not only Mr. Murray but the safety of the whole universe. In the decades since its first publication, A Wrinkle in Time has never been illustrated. Now, Eisner and Ignatz Award-winning Hope Larson takes the classic story to a new level with her vividly imagined interpretations of tessering and favorite characters like the Happy Medium and Aunt Beast. Perfect for old fans and winning over new ones, this graphic novel adaptation is a must-read. A Wrinkle in Time is the first book in Madeleine L’Engle’s Time Quintet. Praise for A Wrinkle in Time: The Graphic Novel: “Know somebody who hasn't met Mrs Whatsit, Mrs Who or Mrs Which? Larson's colorful panels bring Madeleine L'Engle's brilliant time-travel favorite to life in an exciting new way. This is page-turning eye candy of the highest order.” ― James Patterson “This adaptation is fabulous for presenting a fresh vision to those familiar with the original, but it's so true to the story's soul that even those who've never read it will come away with a genuine understanding of L'Engle's ideas and heart.” ― Booklist, starred review “The memorable story of Meg Murry, Charles Wallace Murry, and Calvin O'Keefe's adventure across space and time is conveyed with all the intellectual and emotional impact of the original novel.” ― BCCB “Larson has remained true to the story, preserving the original chapter format and retaining L'Engle's voice. Black-and-white artwork is accented with blue, echoing the original cover color.” ― School Library Journal Review: Faithful and Gorgeous Adaptation - I've been a big reader since I was very young. As a small girl, I would voraciously read more or less anything that was placed in front of me, from cereal boxes to a well-loved dictionary. My grandparents loved introducing me to books that my mom loved as a kid, and one of my favorites was A Wrinkle in Time. I don't think I need to explain the story, but it is one of the best gifts a clever, perhaps slightly strange kid can receive. The book stresses the importance of valuing yourself, both your faults and your strengths. It reminds us that the ways we differ are just as important as the ways we are the same. Perhaps most important for me, it tells us that home is what (and who) we make it. It's just a gorgeous story, and one that other, far more concise folk have summed up. This adaptation, by the wonderful Hope Larson, is simply fantastic. Much of the language is very much the same as in the original L'Engle, so it has very much the same feel. I'm re-reading the original now, and the first few chapters are more or less the same in tone and feel. With regards to the art, I am totally charmed! I love how Larson indicates color and movement. A personal favorite is when Meg mentions Calvin's eyes being blue. The whole book is blue, but when I looked at Calvin in that panel, they looked brighter. It was beautiful. Overall, I feel the art was exceptionally faithful to how I imagined the beautiful and fearsome aspects of the book. Like others, I found IT to be particularly enjoyable. I also want to stress how much I loved Mrs. Who in this version. She never resonated with me the way Whatsit did as a child, but as an adult, I've found Who to be more my speed. After all, communicating with the words of others -- It truly is easier sometimes, is it not? Perhaps I would not love this version as much were I not a lifelong fan of the book. I can certainly understand that, and I do suggest reading the novel itself first if you have not before and are an adult. For children though, this is a lovely introduction to a lovely author.

For the most part, it follows the story fairly accurately. The graphics are unique and interesting. I admit, I was a tad bit put off with the blue toned shading on the artwork, but it grows on you after a little while. In fact, the artwork alone is a good enough reason to purchase this version of the story, though a full color edition would have been much better. Perhaps we can hope for one in the future. Okay, to the details. :) The graphic novel follows the prose novel pretty well. The author/artist does make some minor changes to the story. I found those changes quite interesting, as they gave me a bit of insight on how the author interprets this story. She makes a few different choices than I do. One choice is how the characters are drawn, Meg is close to how I have always seen her in my minds eye, but Charles Wallace and Calvin are totally different than I ever envisioned. And that was pretty fun, because it was almost like these characters were new again. Still interesting, though not so entertaining, were depictions of things the author and artist saw in the characters I have never seen before. Meg's anger came through in an almost disturbing manner throughout the book, disturbing because I had never seen that particular kind of anger in her character. It seemed like an unreasoned anger, not the despairing anger I expected. It was also resolved just a little too easily. There were similar things emphasized in the other characters too. None of which was wrong, all of which I think represented the way the author/artist saw the characters when she read the original story. No, those depictions were not entertaining, but they sure were interesting. And they made reading the graphic novel a great experience. I read it straight through in one sitting, then came back over the next couple days to savor parts I had particularly enjoyed. I think most people will find IT most amusing in this retelling. Well worth the very reasonable price for this this book, and a must have for any collection. I think most of us will find this version resonates well with our children, even if it does, at times, leave those of us who read the book when it was new, slightly bemused. ## Frequently Bought Together - A Wrinkle in Time: The Graphic Novel - The Hobbit: A Graphic Novel (Hobbit Fantasy Classic) - The Secret Garden: A Graphic Novel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/13911084-a-wrinkle-in-time-the-graphic-novel](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/13911084-a-wrinkle-in-time-the-graphic-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
