The Phantom Tollbooth - Norton Juster

Descriere The Phantom Tollbooth - Norton Juster

This tale of 10-year-old Milo and his experiences in the Lands Beyond has become a modern-day children's classic. \nWith almost 5 million copies sold 60 years after its original publication, generations of readers have now journeyed with Milo to the Lands Beyond in this beloved classic. Enriched by Jules Feiffer's splendid illustrations, the wit, wisdom, and wordplay of Norton Juster's offbeat fantasy are as beguiling as ever. \nComes up bright and new every time I read it . . . it will continue to charm and delight for a very long time yet. And teach us some wisdom, too. --Phillip Pullman \n \nFor 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!\n
