Wrinkle In Time
1. What is the main conflict in the book? Is it external or internal? How is this conflict resolved throughout the course of the book?
The main conflict in the book with that the Murry family’s father is stuck in another world. This would be considered an external conflict. It is resolved with the help of the main character Meg and her two helpers, Charles and Calvin. Throughout the book, they meet three women who are from a different planet. They explain to them that there is a villain who is holding their father captive. In order to get to that place where her father is, they must travel through time and different dimensions. Ultimately, Meg, Charles, and Calvin manage to beat the bad character and save her father from the evil darkness.
2. What was your favorite part of the book? Explain why you liked it so much.
My favorite part of the book would be Chapter Four. I thoroughly enjoyed it because of the detail and amount of interesting fiction included. Although the book is very creative in general, the author flourished with Chapter Four by writing made up scenarios like “moonsets” and a Pegasus woman from a different planet. In turn, the planet Uriel is completely different than Earth, making me wish that they were similar. This part of the book makes me desire to live in such a creative planet and almost depicts that I see in my dreams.
3. How does the main character change from the beginning of the book to the end?
The main character Meg Murry transforms from a low-confident girl to a powerful heroine. In the opening chapter of the book, we find out that Meg is considered ‘weird’ and not very academically skilled. Because of this, she does not fit in and often gets in trouble. Her unfortunate misfit style leaves her to lack confidence. This all changes by the end of the book. She eventually ends up saving her father and her brother, reuniting her family. Through this, she becomes confident in the sense that she has strength and is able to do what she
