We LOVE reading! Our upper elementary students just received their new book “From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler” by E.L. Konigsburg. After reading “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” by Roald Dahl, they are now ready to enjoy their next book. The book tells the story of two children who run away from their home to live at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Mystery, personal transformation, and adventure await them. This novel is specifically popular because of its connection to art, art history, and social studies.
“Happiness is excitement that has found a settling down place, but there is always a little corner that keeps flapping around.” E. L. Konigsburg
