I took a Little Free Library book! I‘ve been wanting to read it (or reread it?) since reading Dash & Lily‘s Book of Dares.
I‘ve donated at this #LFL before but I don‘t see it registered on the website.

Any Dash & Lily fans?

tpixie One of my most absolutely favorite books ever!!!! Sleeping on the bed, getting money out of the fountain!!! I know the museum had the bed put away for a while, but I don‘t know if they got it out again! 3w
Ruthiella @tpixie I love this book too for the same reasons. ❤️ 2w

I know I read this as a kid but I didn‘t really remember it. It was published in the 60s and the language really feels like it. One character‘s favorite line is “oh baloney!” 😆

It‘s a cute middle grade read, low pick for me. I looked up to see if there was a movie made, and there was in the 70s, called The Hideaways.

I feel like it probably inspired A Night at the Museum, but there‘s no magic here, just two kids staying in a museum.

DogMomIrene I remember reading this one too as a kid, and loving it, but I can‘t remember any details. May be worth a re-read🤔 3mo

Well, Saxonberg, that's why I'm leaving the drawings of Angel to Claudia and Jamie Kincaid, your two lost grandchildren that you were so worried about”

I thought that the point of view in which this story was told (revealed at the end) makes the story very interesting. Since it is a chapter book this would have to be used with the older grades. I would use this story to talk about POV within texts.

From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. Konigsburg was published in 1967. This is a story that follows two young children who are siblings who run away from home in an attempt to make their absence noticeable to their parents. The children go to the Metropolitan Art Museum and from there meet many interesting characters and interesting circumstances.
