great book!
Agreed. Great Book!
havent had the chance to read it, i know 50yrs, but id really like to.
Love this book!
Sounds like a great read!
I have loved this book since our 5th grade teacher read it to the class because we all wanted to check out the only copy in the library at the same time. It’s one of my all time favorites. (I love all her work.) I introduced my wife to this book, we have read all the L’Engle we could find, and have turned on many others to her through this one. Weird to think this book was only three years old when I first met it.
This is definitely in my Top Ten list of “kids books”.
But… I don’t see any detail on how to actually enter the contest. 8^(
