Book Review of From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler

From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler


This is a fun story about a brother and sister running away from home and hiding in a museum. It's fun because at night they get to sleep in some of the exhibit beds, hide from the staff, and take baths in the museum fountain and collect the fountain change for their lunch money. Of course they make it back home safe and sound in the end after making a really special friend, Mrs. Frankweiler.

It is reading level 6.8 according to Scholastic.
