-
Mrs. Whatsit: One of the three mysterious beings helping the children. She plays a crucial role in guiding Meg, Charles, and Calvin on their quest to rescue Meg's father.
-
Mrs. Which: Another of the three supernatural beings, she has a cloud-like presence and is more enigmatic. She provides important guidance and support to the children.
