I read this when I was little and I LOVED it. I wanted so badly to do what they did. The closest I got was to try to hide in the library when my mom would come to pick me up hours after she dropped me off. I still want to do hide away and spend the night in a museum or library... For a grown-up version, check out Murakami's "Kafka on the Shore." An excerpt:
"On my fifteenth birthday I'll run away from home, journey to a far-off town, and live in the corner of a small library. It'd take a week to go into the whole thing, all the details. So I'll just give the main point. On my fifteenth birthday I'll run away from home, journey to a far-off town, and live in the corner of a small library."
