From the Mixed up files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler Elya

This book is about two kids who run away from home, and hide in the New York Museum of Art. They find ways to spend as little money as they can, although they had a lot of money, 27$ (that was a LOT of money at that time, especially for a kid). They spend quite a lot of time at the museum, and they get obsessed with a specific work of art. They do a lot of research on it, and they found out that it was donated to the museum by Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. They go to visit her, and they get to know her. She talks to them about the angel, and has her butler drive them back to their home. The boy kept pressing buttons in the back, so even through the partition wall is closed, the driver could hear what they were saying. He wrote a letter to Mrs. Basil, and she heard that the kids were talking about her. This whole book is written as a letter from Mrs. Basil, to her lawyer, who is, (although the children don't know it) their grandfather. In the letter that the butler gives Mrs. Basil, he says that one of the kids say that they would like her as a grandmother. That would mean that they were partners.

I have very little more to say about this book, even though it was really good.

I recommend this book to people who like a pretty short slightly funny adventure.
