From The Mixed Up Files Of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
I think this is deffenatly a fith grade book because it has a more advanced vocabulary then ushewal. It is not a huge book but good for homework reading. I thought that it was stupid to run away from home and hide in a museum. I was suprised that they where able to stay in the museum and then run back home without being discovered. I would rate this book in 8 because it did not have much plot or exitement and the auther wrote down some important things in the story to quickly sometimes. My sister recomended it.

This book reminded me of my mom, she told me that when she was little she would "run away" into the garage when she was mad. She never went anywhere else so her parents were never really freaked out. I feel sorry for the mom and dad in the book, to have their kid one day and have he or she disappear without a note or anything. I would rate this a well deserved 10.
