"It was a dark and stormy night."

A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle's begins in a comfortingly familiar way. Two children meet in the kitchen over hot chocolate. But when the door opens, extraterrestrials join the story! Soon we learn about top secret government projects, two-year disappearances, and five-year-old Charles Wallace, who doesn't speak but reads minds. A tesseract is introduced. What's a tesseract? To find out, visit the OGR website and OGR Facebook Page.
