From the Mixied up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. By Jaclyn

What books do you like to read?

Well, in school, my class is reading From the Mixed up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. Every time we read a chapter, we have to respond on a question our teacher ask us. The main characters in it are: Claudia, Jamie and Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler.



In the book, they are trying to find out who made the Angel statue. They wondered if the Angel statue was made by Michelangelo.  The whole story started out when Jamie and Claudia wanted to run away from their home. Claudia wanted to go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. That is where they stayed for 1 to 3 days. They didn't want to be seen because if they were, someone will take them home and they don't want to go home. (Here is a funny part.) So Claudia wanted to get clean and there was not a tub in the museum, so they went in a fountain without their clothes on! Now they found Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler's house and they found out who made the angel statue. It was MICHELANGELO!
