| Madeleine L'Engle passed away Madeleine L'Engle, author of many well-known young adult books, died on Thursday at the age of 88. Although her passing was not unexpected, I still find it sad news. Her classic book "A Wrinkle in Time" was one of my first sci-fi books, and that with its sequels "A Wind in the Door" and "A Swiftly Tilting Planet" are still among my favorite books. L'Engle also wrote the award-winning "Meet the Austins" series, and has a total of over 60 published materials. She was a wonderful author whose work has influenced many. www.nytimes.com/2007/09/08/books/07cnd-lengle.html?_r=1&oref=slogin |

| Re: Madeleine L'Engle passed away Sorry, I don't know how to edit the post. I also don't know what is wrong with the link because if I copy and paste it into another browser window it does go to the right site (it's a new york times article). |
