The Phantom Tollbooth

The Phantom Tollbooth

By:Norton M. Juster

Reviewed By: Diya

The Phantom Tollbooth is an amazing, no spectacular book. I loved it. This book was school picked so my whole class had to read it. Milo is a boy who does not have interest in anything. When he was in school he wished he was doing something else when he was not at school. When Milo coms home from his school one day he sees a Tollbooth, Milo enters since he had nothing to do. Little he knew that it could change his life.

The cover may not be interesting but this is an engaging book which I loved. It had so many cliffhangers, laughable parts, and strange names.

I give it 4 stars.
