A Merry Museum Mix-Up!

Okay, I'm not actually suggesting it (!!!) but if you ever imagined running off somewhere, where would you go? Forget the circus! I would run off to a museum and live there (!!!) and that's exactly what Claudia does in E. L. Konigsburg's From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler! Written in 1967 and winner of the Newbery Medal, this book made my "museum dream" come true! Armed with a few dollars but lots of imagination, Claudia and her brother, Jamie, carefully plan to run off and live in the wondrous and wonderful Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. And along the way, they discover the secrets of the museum and a few things about themselves as well.

What a place for imagining! My favorite place in the Met? Where Claudia and Jamie hide from their classmates, ofcourse!! Where would you niche out? Get the book, visit the museum, and map it out yourself!

But just in case you can't wait, here's an on-line book you can read right now about another museum adventure, Aaron's Awesome Adventure!

And to get you going on your own adventure, here's a colorful lesson in imagination from one of the greatest museums in the world!
