Our March 2026 program features From the mixed-up files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E. L. Konigsburg. Named a Times "Best YA Book of All Time" in 2021, this beloved classic novel invites readers on an adventure to the Metropolitan Museum of Art with protagonist Claudia and her brother Jamie.
Publishers Weekly Review:
For years, even readers who have never traveled to New York City have visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art, courtesy of Claudia Kincaid, heroine of From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. Konigsburg. Winner of the 1968 Newbery Medal, this novel charts one girl's mission to run away from her straight-As life to somewhere beautiful-the Met. In the process, she becomes obsessed with uncovering the secrets of a breathtaking statue.
