One Mixed-Up Night
One Mixed-Up Night | Catherine Newman
5 posts | 3 read | 5 to read
This book is like From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler . . . but instead of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, these two friends are running away to somewhere a little more modern--Ikea. Frankie and Walter aren't really running away. Just like the kids in their favorite book, they are running to somewhere. Specifically, a massive furniture store. They've been obsessed with the Ikea catalog for years. So they make a plan, pack their backpacks, give their parents the sleepover switcheroo . . . and they're in. One night all on their own, with no grown-ups or little brothers. One night of couch jumping, pillow forts, and unlimited soda refills. One night of surprises and twinkle lights and secrets they have each been keeping--and waiting to share. One unforgettable night in Ikea.

Quick read about two kids who plan a night of adventure in an IKEA store. They‘re inspired by the book From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, one of my favorites when I was young.

This was a fun friendship adventure story with some fun book mentions. Walter and Frankie have been best friends since pre-school. They LOVE IKEA and plan to live out one of their favorite books -- From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler. Told from Frankie's point of view, readers learn about "the thing we weren't talking about" which gives their adventure another level of meaning.
