Above is one of my prize possessions - an autograph by Madeleine L’Engle obtained by young Billy Barnes at Second Story Books in Chappaqua, NY (now sadly closed), circa 1977. I was deeply, madly in love with A Wrinkle in Time and its sequels.
That books was a classic even then, so I guess it shouldn’t be a shock to find out it’s celebrating its 50th anniversary. This week’s sponsor, Macmillan Children’s Publishing Group, have a special commemorative edition of the book, plus a new event video, party ideas, and activity and discussion guides. Help wish this great book a Happy Birthday by bringing it to life for your students and patrons. Visit their website for more info!
