I heard today on the Writer's Almanac that Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time was rejected by the first 27 editors she submitted it to. This statistic makes me feel a teensy weensy bit better about getting rejections. But just a teensy weensy bit.
This is the image on the cover of the edition I read as a child. By the way, if you haven't read this book. . . get on it. Possibly the most seminal work of fiction responsible for shaping my young mind. (Runner up: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe)
