From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E. L. Konigsburg
One of my favorite books growing up, From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler is the reason I still want to run away and live in a museum to this day. If you haven’t read this book, stop reading this and go get it.
My cover portrays the funky (and mixed-up) files of Lady Basil, combining my other love of card catalogs into some sort of dream cabinet that has various drawers of various sizes.
One of my favorite books. I’ve read it more times than I remember and I still have my copy from the 5th grade.
