The Phantom Tollbooth

The Phantom Tollbooth. What can be said in introduction? It is a classic. It is so full of lessons that you're practically gagging. Yet it is so entertaining, so endearing, that it automatically becomes a favorite.

Summary: Milo is bored and lazy. He is not interested in school or life or anything. His family is well off, he could do anything. He just doesn't feel the spark of life. Then one day a mysterious toy tollbooth appears in his room, and after setting it up he embarks on a journey through another land to free the princesses Rhyme and Reason. With his new friend, Tock (a watch dog!), he learns a lot about himself and life.

Other: This book has the potential to be cheesy and terrible. Often allegories are just ridiculous. However, this book is amazing and funny and one of my favorites for several years now.

Favorite Parts:
I'm not even going to write this. This book is genius and every chapter is new and amazing and surprising and funny. This list would end up just being a chapter list.
