About Becoming Madeleine: A Biography of the Author of A Wrinkle in Time by Her Granddaughters:


This middle-grade biography explores the life and works of Madeleine L’Engle –written by her granddaughters Charlotte Jones Voiklis and Léna Roy–coming just in time for the all-new A Wrinkle in Time film, directed by Ava DuVernay and featuring a multi-racial cast (release date: March 9, 2018).


Madeleine L’Engle (1918–2007) is the beloved author of A Wrinkle in Time, its sequels, and numerous other works for children and adults. Now, her granddaughters have written her biography with never-before-seen archival materials–including photographs, letters, and journal entries–from throughout the writer’s life. BECOMING MADELEINE will speak not only to fans of the icon’s work, but to anyone interested in writing, legacy, and the impact of one person on the people that love her.


Books will be sold before and after the event.
