A Wrinkle in Time By Madeline L´Engle In Willstead town, in North Carolina
strange things are happening. Do you want to know more? Well in A Wrinkle in
Time by Madeleine L’Engle, a wonderful writer tells all the weird things that
are happening. The setting of this story is on North Carolina, at the town of
Willstead in the year of 2005. One day Margaret was left by the Aliens when she
was two- months old at planet Earth, and was found by the Murrie’s, a nice
couple, that had one year of marriage.
Several years had passed and Margaret
grew up like a normal girl. Now she has twin brothers and a Collie dog. At
school everybody thinks that she is a freak, but she is a ten-year-old girl,
with beautiful eyes and a lot of intelligence. She is an alien but no one knows
not even her. Margaret came to Earth by a computer fraud that caused a wrinkle
in time. An old woman called Mrs. Whatsit came to Earth with a job to take
Margaret back. She visits Margaret and buys her nice things to win Margaret’s
confidence. Mrs. Whatsit lived in the middle of the woods. One day a robbery had
been reported to the police. It was a missing blanket and the thief was Mrs.
Whatsit because she needed a lot of warmth because planet Earth was too cold for
them. The Tesseract that is the name of the species that Margaret and Mrs.
Whatsit belong to. At school some rare people that were the same species of
Margaret went to do a contest. Margaret won the contest but this was no contest
this were a series of exams that they had to do to Margaret to see if she could
live in her home planet and see if she was fit to live there. Mrs. Whatsit was
there and after the exams she sat down Margaret and started telling everything
about her species and how she got here. At first Margaret didn’t believe it but
afterwards she started understanding all the things she had passed through all
alone with no one that could understand her. Mrs. Whatsit tells Margaret if she
wants to go back where she is supposed to be and she stayed thinking and told
her she would tell her later. Each day Mrs. Whatsit and Margaret went together
to the park and Mrs. Whatsit told her everything about their planet. The
Murrie’s had planed a trip to the beach but Margaret preferred to stay at home;
that was the perfect moment to take Margaret to see their planet. Mrs. Whatsit
took out from her purse a small device pointed it to the sky and it opened like
a tunnel that lead you exactly where you belonged.
