Blog Post

Number of pages: 250/300

 

What are some of the obstacles that the protagonist is faced with?
The book starts with two main characters, Meg and Charles Wallace, struggling to fit in. Children in their environment do not understand them, so they feel like outcasts. Sadly, they have no self-confidence to prove others wrong, plus it seems like they chose not to care. They are very involved in their personal problems; their father has been missing for two years now. The only concern they have is if and when their father will come back.

What do they do to overcome these obstacles?
Charles Wallace becomes a friend with three strangers living in their neighborhood - Mrs. Whatsit, Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Which. These three ladies invite children to a strange journey through different dimensions, promising they will help Charles and Meg find their father.
