Summary

Luego que Charles Wallace le dice a su hermana Meg que ha visto dragones en el huerto de su casa, los hermanos Murry reciben la sorprendente visita de Blajeny, un sabio Profesor proveniente del espacio, y de Proginoskes, un "querubines" con cientos de ojos y alas que se torna invisible a voluntad. Tanto Meg como su amigo Calvin son llevados a una galaxia remota donde verán que el Universo se está "agrietando", y recibirán la noticia de que la vida de Charles es amenazada por una enfermedad que se desarrolla en el interior de sus mitocondrias. Para reestablecer el equilibrio del Universo enfermo, Meg y Calvin, acompañados por Proginoskes y un inesperado aliado, tendrán que viajar al interior de Charles, donde descubrirán que el cuerpo humano es un universo tan grande como el que contiene las estrellas. Una vez más, Madeleine L´Engle demuestra por qué es una de las narradoras capitales dentro de la literatura juvenil de fantasía en esta aventura llena de ciencia, mística y corazón.

When Meg comes home from school, Charles Wallace tells her he saw dragons in the twin's vegetable garden. That night Meg, Calvin and C.W. go to the vegetable garden to meet the Teacher (Blajeny) who explains that what they are seeing isn't a dragon at all, but a cherubim named Proginoskes. It turns out that C.W. is ill and that Blajeny and Proginoskes are there to make him well—by making him well, they will keep the balance of the universe in check and save it from the evil Echthros. Meg, Calvin, and Mr. Jenkins (grade school principal) must travel inside C.W. to have this battle and save Charles' life as well as the balance of the universe.
