Review
When I was about 7 years old, I remember that there was this barnes and nobles promotion

thing:that if you read 10 books, you could get a free one of your choice. I happened to finish

three pages of te promotion coupon, so I chose How to survive Middle school and my mom

chose A Wrinkle in Time and The sign of the beaver for me. Of course I didn't read either A

Wrinkle In Time or The Sign Of The Beaver until last year. And, surprisingly, I found out

that they were really good books. But what I comprehend from when I was younger, I

always read a book by it's cover. A wrinkle in Time's cover was sort of odd and told me that it

wasn't a good book. The sign of te beaver had a bear on the cover-not the type of cute cuddly

bear-a large big blck bear with it's jaws open. Thats what what I beleive kept me away from

these books. A Wrinkle in Time is actually wonderful, and I've been dying for a very long

time to read it's sequel that I never checked out. The Plot was great, the characters were

okay, (I didn't find any favorite characters like I normally do), the description was uh...okay

too, I guess, and overall, it was a really really good book.
