The first time I read A Wrinkle In Time I think I was in 3rd grade, and I can definitely assure you I had NO IDEA what I had just read.

The second time I got through it (as a class assignment), I was in 5th grade and fell in love with the Newberry Award winning book (one of the highest awards in children's literature) by Madelaine L'Engle about...well...the easiest way to say it is: a story of inter-dimensional time travel to save a girl's father.

NOW, it's been made into a new movie and check out this cast...

Oprah Winfrey (Selma, The Butler) as Mrs. Which
Reese Witherspoon (Wild, Walk the Line) as Mrs. Whatsit
Mindy Kaling (The Mindy Project, Inside Out) as Mrs. Who
Chris Pine (Star Trek Beyond, Hell or High Water, Into the Woods”) as Mr. Murry
Zach Galifianakis (Birdman, The Hangover) as The Happy Medium

AND more!

A Wrinkle In Time opens March 9, 2018.
