I would give this book 3-4 stars because I thought it was cool how Claudia and Jamie ran away into the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Another thing I thought was neat was how they hid on the bus and they didn’t get caught. It is funny because now when the bus driver goes to park the bus in where they drop it off they always check the seats if there are any sleeping children or kids who didn’t get out. The other part I liked was when they met Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. I liked that part because it was funny how Claudia and Jamie thought that Mrs. Frankweiler would just tell them about Angel, but then they only had 1 hr. to look for the file in her big shelf of files to see if Michelangelo really did sculpt Angel. So, that is why I would give this book a 3-4.
 * Write a review of the book here! How many stars do you give it on a scale of 1-to5**

==== If I were to rate this book between 1 and 5 I would give it a 3 because it was slow and it got confusing. The parts of the book I did like were that it was about two kids so I can connect to their age. I also liked that Jamie plays war and gambles, which I play war and gamble. The parts I didn't like were that I don't like mysteries. I also didn't like that they were running away. ==== I would give this book 4 stars because it is very exciting. For example, when they were at the museum, I thought it was interesting how they found Angel and did research on it, and found that Michelangelo sculptured it. Also I liked the part when Jamie takes a bath in the fountain, and found a bunch of coins. I liked this part because it was very exciting when they found the money.

The book From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankwieler is about a girl named Claudia who gets so angry with her parents since she thinks their making her do all the work around the house like laundry or dishes so she decides to runaway to The Metropolitan Museum of Art. She has one problem though. She doesn't have any money so she brings along one of her younger brothers named Jamie who spends his time playing cards with one of his friends and bets money, but Jamie cheats and always gets the money. Then they set of to the museum where they then have to dodge and hide from night guards, but there is one thing that they like there. A statue named Angel then they go to a old women that gave the statue to the museum to see if it is done by the famous renaissance artist named Michael Angelo. The women's name is Mrs. Basil E. Frankwieler. I think this story should get 5 stars. I think this story was exciting especially when Claudia had their plan in action on the bus. I also think that they were clever because they were prepared when they went away. They were prepared when they saved money for the trip.
 * I give the book 5 stars because it was an adventure. All of the things they did like living in the museum, having only little money, and lots more was exciting. Today, people could not do what they did so it was interesting to see how everything came together. It had lots of suspense. I loved when they found all the secrets to finish the puzzle ** . **A part I liked was when they were looking for the file at Mrs.Basil E. Frankweiler’s house. All the files they looked threw.**
