Currently Reading for Tackle Your TBR Read-a-Thon book #2: The Phantom Tollbooth

For this Tackle Your TBR Read-a-Thon, I went through my bookcases and picked ten books that were mostly old or classic that I haven't read. Although, I do have one pick that was published three years ago as well as three slightly fairly recent comic books.

With that said, the second book I'm reading for the read-a-thon is the children's classic The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster. I have never read this but I always wanted to. I bought this book from a library book sale several years ago and I'm finally getting around to reading it.

Book: The Phantom Tollboth by Norton Juster and illustrations by Jules Feiffer

Description:

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. . . .
