    As we began to watch the movie “A Wrinkle in Time,” we found many differences such as, at the beginning of the story Meg has a flashback of her father unlike in the book. This is an example of the directors not following the story line. As she has this flashback it is foreshadowing her and Charles Wallace finding their father. Another example of the director not following the original story line is in the movie “A Wrinkle in TIme,” they show Mrs.Murray looking up the tesseract unlike in the book

Second, this study discusses the impact puberty has on the adolescent sleep cycle. Lastly, Edwards (2012) focused this study on
