Oscar and Timothy chase Teddy back to the museum where a party is in full swing. Then they proceed to chase him through the museum. As they go, there are numerous facts put forth as flaps and information on the museum wall. This allows the story to be both fact and fiction. They are getting a story while having lots of amazing information also at their fingertips.
