2017 marks the fiftieth anniversary of the beloved classic From the Mixed-up files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler.

Claudia knew that she could never pull off the old-fashioned kind of running away....She didn't like discomfort....Therefore, she decided that her leaving home would not be just running from somewhere but would be running to somewhere. To a large place, a comfortable place, an indoor place, and preferably a beautiful place. And that's why she decided upon the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
-- from From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler

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 he was a miser and would have money.

Claudia was a good organizer and Jamie had 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 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.

For many years E. L. Konigsburg's story has entranced readers of all ages. This special anniversary edition contains a new afterword from the author, along with a few extra surprises to delight readers old and new.

Convenient and good quality.
Color: Black, Size: 6FT
This is a really great charger, super fast charging. We are happy with it. It was simple to install in the end table at the end of the couch, as opposed to behind the it. Much more convenient location for a charging station and electrical outlet than behind the couch.

SemiPerfect for gun safe
Color: Black, Size: 10FT
Bought for gun safe. I made a custom install using one of the bolt down holes up front and a wood box from crate. Had to cut cord and use an approved Wago connector. Enough spacing for wall warts to power lights, dehumidifier and fanless computer. 65W total. It can only provide full 65watts if one USB-C ports is used.

Does not charge more than one device at a time…
Color: Black, Size: 10FT
Does not charge more than one device at a time. I have a USB C to charge my iPhone. If I connect any other USB type plug into the socket, my iPhone will disconnect from charging. I’ve also tried this with my Apple Watch and it disconnects from charging as well. I know it does not charge more than one device at 65W, but it should be able to charge more than one device at a time. It has two USB ports and two USB C ports. Maybe this one is defective?
