Wonderful way to present one of the most amazing books ever written for children (and now we know there are people who did not know it was a book).
That saddens me in a while; not so much because of the fact that some people are not reading what we have read, but because we are so fascinated about and involved in the book world, we forget about more powerful media doing the work of attracting people, especially young people, to stories.
I listened to the novel on tape years ago, read by L'engle herself (i am not that old, we just were a bit behind with technology). It was a wonderful experience.
She tells how nobody wanted to publish it because it was too complex for children and she tells how her own children were actually her Guinea pigs. She would read to them chapters as she wrote them and they not only understood the story, but loved it and asked for more.
So much for adults/editors knowing better.
