I quite enjoyed the character of the Unicorn, Gaudior, but the time leaping and trying to keep track of who Charles Wallace was Within, and which one was a decendant of whom, it just got tedious and I found myself falling asleep after almost every chapter (which would be

Dear reader I highly suggest that you read A Wrinkle in time by Madeleine L Engle. It is very exiting and adevturous with a little drama. So in the begging of the book Meg Murrys father is a scientist and he tried to make time machine or a teleporter that can move you to plant to plant. But one day he goes missing and Meg gets very depressed and sad over this. So as the story goes on the Meg gets made fun of. So Meg wanted to do something about this so she went on an adventure with her brother
