Book Reviews of From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
Book Review: A decent book worth reading
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is a pretty good book. This book is amusing, and it is also entertaining. It is a good use of time. I think that there are more slightly better quality books. This book was cool because in parts there are a lot of exquisite actions such as where they sleep in the museum, what they try to discover, and how they basically live their lives as they ran away from home. While just now as i'm in 6th grade, my friends and I have had a lot of fun reading this book.
Summary of From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
Claudia knew that she could never pull off the old-fashioned kind of running away...so she decided not to run FROM somewhere, but TO somewhere. And so, after some careful planning, she and her younger brother, Jamie, escaped -- right into a mystery that made headlines!After reading this book, I guarantee that you will never visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art (or any wonderful, old cavern of a museum) without sneaking into the bathrooms to look for Claudia and her brother Jamie. They're standing on the toilets, still, hiding until the museum closes and their adventure begins. Such is the impact of timeless novels . . . they never leave us. E. L. Konigsburg won the 1967 Newbery Medal for this tale of how Claudia and her brother run away to the museum in order to teach their parents a lesson. Little do they know that mystery awaits!
