Madeleine L'Engle (Wrinkle in Time) memorial post link
The editors of THE ENVIRONMENTALIST have written a memorial post about Madeleine L'Engle:

Madeleine L'Engle died today. You may not know her name, but to an entire generation, the world she'd created with her Newbery Medal winning "A Wrinkle in Time," was as important to their lives as J.R.R. Tolkien was to those who loved "The Lord of the Rings"...

I loved her work. Rest in Peace.

3. How sad. I didn't know she died.
That was my very favorite book as a child.

4. I've loved her for many decades.
I'd just finished rereading one of her last ya novels when the news came that she'd passed.

She leaves behind a great legacy.
