I just read on NY Times website that Madeleine L’Engle, author of my favorite children’s book,  A Wrinkle in Time, has died. She was 88.

I still have my copy of A Wrinkle in Time, although it is battered and missing the front cover. (Actually, I think it might even be my sister’s book!) I’ve read it many times over the years. It has never lost the wonder it gave me all those years ago.
