About This Item
A young girl who wants to run away, but the place she runs to MUST be neat, tidy, warm and comfortable. What better place then the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City!
Synopsis
When Claudia decided to run away, she planned very carefully. She would be gone just long enough to teach her parents a lesson in Claudia appreciation. And she would go in comfort-she would live at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. She saved her money, and she invited her brother Jamie to go, mostly because be was a miser and would have money. Claudia was a good organizer and Jamie bad some ideas, too; so the two took up residence at the museum right on schedule. But once the fun of settling in was over, Claudia had two unexpected problems: She felt just the same, and she wanted to feel different; and she found a statue at the Museum so beautiful she could not go home until she bad discovered its maker, a question that baffled the experts, too. The former owner of the statue was Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. Without her-well, without her, Claudia might never have found a way to go home.

About Timeless Words
Timeless Words is a way for me to share my love of books! Nothing can take the place of holding words in your hands - words that will take the reader to another world! To re-read a book through the generations is a way of passing down the history and adventure of those other worlds! To me, a book is that is handed down through time is a link to past family members and allows the newest generation, who reads it, a link to the past and helping to carry on a tradition - just as family reunions and holiday rituals are! At Timeless Words we want our buyers to feel that the generation, or copyright year, of a book is not a barrier to finding it! Whether it is an educational book, or a non-fiction novel, from the 1800's to a Z- Generation children's book, we may have it! If it is not in stock - just ask for it! Timeless Words would like to offer to look for a book for you, starting with our local businesses, at no research cost to you! Come on in and take a look around! Ask if you can't find it!
