The theme of time is treated differently in the two stories. In 'Wrinkle in Time', time is something that can be manipulated through the tesseract, and it's a key element in the characters' journey across different planets and dimensions. In 'The Neverending Story', time seems to be more fluid within the world of Fantasia but not in the same way as in 'Wrinkle in Time'. Also, 'The Neverending Story' has a theme of the relationship between the real world and the fictional world of Fantasia, which is not really present in 'Wrinkle in Time' in the same way. Bastian's actions in the real world affect Fantasia and vice versa, which is a unique aspect of its theme.
In 'Wrinkle in Time', there is a strong theme of good vs. evil in a more traditional sense, with the forces of the Dark Thing representing evil. In 'The Neverending Story', the concept of the Nothing which is destroying Fantasia is a bit more complex. It's not as straightforwardly 'evil' but more like a void caused by the lack of belief and imagination. So the themes related to the source of conflict are different. Also, 'Wrinkle in Time' has a theme of scientific - spiritual connection, with the tesseract being a sort of bridge between different dimensions and concepts, while 'The Neverending Story' is more about the power of pure imagination without that scientific aspect.
