95 years old (Born on February 10, 1930)
Happy Birthday to the incomparable E.L. Konigsburg! May your celebration be as adventurous as Claudia and Jamie's sleepover at The Metropolitan Museum from "From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler," but please—less stressful for museum security!Your timeless stories continue inspiring us, capturing hearts with every rereading—from Noah's investigative spirit in "Silent to the Bone" through Nadia’s determination in overcoming life challenges like in "The View from Saturday." Here's hoping today's cake is sweeter than a perfectly spelled word at an Academic Bowl—and may your joy multiply faster than entries piling up on Mrs. Frankweiler’s cluttered desk!
