" Best book from my childhood. Right up there with Charlotte's Web and Nancy Drew! "

" One of my all time favorite juvenile fiction books. A charming story. "

" My favorite children's book of all time---maybe it was the inspiration for me to attain my degree in Art History. "

" That magic book written for children that still holds up when you're an adult. "

" I haven't read this book since I was a kid but it really stuck with me. It is due for a re-read "

" This was a cute story about a girl and her brother. She decideds she wants to runaway and she takes her younger brother with her. She decides that they will live in the New York Metropolitian Museaum of Art. The discover that a new sculpture has come the museum and no one knows if it was made by Michelangelo or not. The kids think it was and do research. They track down the women who sold the sculpture and she helps them to solve the mystery. It was a kid's version of The Davinci Code. It was a cute book. Not sure if I would recommend due to the fact the kids runaway, steal money from the fountain, bathe in the fountain, and go off with strangers. "

" We listened to this on a family road trip. Great read. My favorite character? The Metropolitan Museum of Art. I couldn't help but wish I was there with them. "

" So strange...but i loved it "

" Read this aloud with my 9-year old daughter. It really stood the test of time. perfect to appeal to the pre-teen. it's got mystery, sibling rivalry, running away fantasy-fulfilment. best YA ever, very readable as an adult. "

" I loved what this had to say about team work and how adventures can be internal journeys resulting in self awareness and growth. My daughter was right when she said it was my kind of book and it was a nice change from the YA novels I need to keep up with for work "

" One of my favorite childhood books. Who didn't want to get lost in a museum as a kid? "

" Favorite book from childhood. "

" Read this as a young girl. I don't know how many times. But I loved it. It is very cool when your kids read the same books you do! "

" I want to think this was one of the books that was required reading in elementary school but it's one that I remember fondly. A lot of these books have come back to mind and I just wonder what I would think if I were to read it again today as an adult. May just have to find out! "

" This is a great book for teens and adults alike. Although the focus is on two runaway children, the message is for everyone. It is a beautiful story! "

" i think this might have been my first chapter book! I think I read it when I was in pre-kindergarten... "

" It was alright, but it was not my favorite. Slow and kind of uninteresting. I don't think this one has aged well. "

" I remember reading this book! I loved it, the characters were amazing, and it had a great touch of childhood wonder about it that really reflected my earlier years of homeschooling. Such a good book. "

" One of the few books that I read as a youth and loved! Recently read again and fell in love all over again. A fun story with a little bit of mystery and adventure, but really is about self-discovery. "

" Used in a Cinti. Art Museum tour based on the book. Book for young readers. Items in tour include: Fountain, bedstead, marble angels, patron Longworth, large vases, the library, the security desk, and renaissance area. "

" Such a good book. It made me think, maybe I should runaway from home!! Great book "

" I can't believe I didn't read this book in childhood. It's both an incredibly fun story and has great things to think about in terms of knowlegde, rewards, secrets, and what you can hold special for yourself in life. Love, love, love. "

" Now I wanna go to the Met. "

" i dont even remember if i liked this or not "

" It was good and suprisingly realistic in a way "

" My son had to read this and I'm going on a field trip with him. Thought I'd reread it. "

" Reread in honor of my trip to the Met, NYC and Connecticut. <3 "

" Great quick read. Kids loved it. "

" I love this book. I have always wanted to live in a library for a summer, so the idea of living in a museum sounds wonderful. I really liked this book. "

" Definitely an essential read for adults and children alike. "

" My mom first read this book to me when I was in kindergarden. I fell in love with it the second she finished the first chapter. I've read it too many times since then. I just love it that much. "

" A great kickback book. Perhaps a forgotten treasure. "

" Just finished reading with Annachiara, she still has the last chapter to finish. I hope we can share more books like that - anyone have any suggestions? I am thinking we might tackle To Kill a Mockingbird this Summer... "

" Delightful!
And the reader, Jan Miner, is incredible! "

" I read this as a child and then again 2-3 years ago. "
