Descriere magazin:
Now redesigned and repackaged with new cover art by Taeeun Yoo, these editions in L\'Engle\'s classic middle-grade series each features a new Introduction by the author\'s granddaughter, Charlotte Jones Voiklis. Book one of the Austin Family Chronicles, an award-winning young adult series from Madeleine L\'Engle, author of A Wrinkle in Time, about a girl who experiences the difficulties and joys of growing up. Beautifully written, with integrity and warmth, and young people are bound to identify with the characters, each a person in his own right, and to read absorbed from first page to last. Thoroughly recommended. --Chicago Tribune For a family with four kids, two dogs, assorted cats, and a constant stream of family and friends dropping by, life in the Austin family home has always been remarkably steady and contented.

How can one small child disrupt a family of six? Will life ever return to normal?

The book is beautifully written, with integrity and warmth, and young people are bound to identify with the characters, each a person in his own right, and to read absorbed from first page to last. Thoroughly recommended. --Chicago Tribune An unusual book. . . . There are intimate details of home life that everyone will recognize with pleasure; there is great warmth in the family relationship, and it is movingly communicated. --The New York Times Told with warmth and humor, this is a perceptive, forthright story of a loving and likeable family. --Booklist Her books . . . tend to be about the intersection of some fantastic unearthly world and the ordinary world in which we live. --Daniel Handler (a.
