The time is 1895, the boy is Philip Warren, and the museum is the precursor to the Victoria & Albert: the South Kensington Museum.  And, oh, yes –there’s a remarkable piece of art that the boy is besotted with — the Gloucester Candlestick.  However, while this may make many children’s book mavens think immediately of E. L. Konigsburg’s classical story for children, let me say straight out — A. S.
