The Phantom Tollbooth

by Norton Juster   |  Ages 9-12
$8.90
The Phantom Tollbooth
The Phantom Tollbooth

Imaginative adventure through language and whimsy.

If the mundane has you yawning, "The Phantom Tollbooth" is your ticket to a world brimming with linguistic fun and clever escapades. As Milo's boredom is shattered by his fantastical journey, yours might be too. This book isn't just a read; it's a playful poke at the joy buried in learning, words, and the absurdity of adult logic that's waiting to be discovered by readers young and old.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Hailed as “a classic. . . . humorous, full of warmth and real invention” (The New Yorker), this beloved story -first published more than fifty years ago- introduces readers to Milo and his adventures in the Lands Beyond. For Milo, everything’s a bore. When a tollbooth mysteriously appears in his room, he drives through only because he’s got nothing better to do. But on the other side, things seem different. Milo visits the Island of Conclusions (you get there by jumping), learns about time from a ticking watchdog named Tock, and even embarks on a quest to rescue Rhyme and Reason! Somewhere along the way, Milo realizes something astonishing. Life is far from dull. In fact, it’s exciting beyond his wildest dreams. . . .
