Frankweiler, and The Dollpeople!   Chicago sixth graders Ruthie and Jack think they've learned everything about the magic of the Art Institute's Thorne Rooms. But the magic starts to act strangely when Ruthie and Jack discover two rings that are out of place--and out of time--and a portal that shouldn't be open but somehow is.

But to talk to Mrs. Thorne, they'll have to go back in time and find her!   Unlock the magic . . . in the exciting conclusion to the Sixty-Eight Rooms Adventures.…
