From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. KonigsburgMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I hadn't picked this book up since I was a kid, so it was really fun to revisit this title. It wasn't quite as brilliant as I remember, but I still think it will be a great read-aloud when my kids are older. The idea of running away to a museum was wildly appealing to me when I was younger. Now I think I'd want to figure out how to go straight to Mrs. Frankweiler's house. It's a bit more luxurious. :)
ps. The note from E.L. Konigsburg at the end was fascinating. I didn't realize how old this book was.
