"The Phantom Tollbooth" by Norton Juster

"I read [The Phantom Tollbooth] first when I was ten. I still have the book report I wrote, which began 'This is the best book ever." - Anna Quindlin, The New York Times

"A classic... Humorous, full of warmth and real invention." - The New Yorker

"Most books advertised for 'readers of all ages' fail to keep their promise. But Norton Juster's amazing fantasy has something wonderful for anybody old enough to relish the allegorical wisdom of Alice in Wonderland and the pointed whimsy of The Wizard of Oz." - The New York Times

"I love this book." - katinatreesee

So sorry about the rejection... :(

I will have to check this book out. I am enjoying Red Pyramid (although I'm not crazy about the "voice" of the boy. But I love the story so far!

Yes! A montage would be fun, I think!

Do you watch Fecklessman?? Check him out! I think you'd love him.

This is one of my favourite books- I just bought a copy of it yesterday as my friend's son is called Milo and she'd never heard of it! The movie is pretty great too, especially the songs.
