From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
Claudia Kincaid feels unappreciated at home, so she decides to run away—to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, no less. She recruits her younger brother, Jamie, for his savings and company. Together, they uncover a mystery surrounding a beautiful statue that might be the work of Michelangelo. Their quest for answers leads them to the enigmatic Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, whose mixed-up files hold the key to their adventure. This delightful tale of curiosity and courage has always held a special place in my heart.
