{"product_id":"the-phantom-tollbooth-9780394820378","title":"The Phantom Tollbooth","description":"With almost 4 million copies sold more than 50 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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Comes 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 \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor 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\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yearling Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/12\/1988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780394820378\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.50h x 5.20w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/1996 pg. 69 - Superior,Well Above Average\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNewsweek\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/04\/2008 pg. 9\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/25\/2014 pg. 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eEntertainment Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/20\/2015 pg. 118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e130 \/ Phantom Tollbooth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.7 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 7\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Norton Juster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36636994830492,"sku":"9780394820378","price":7.64,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_cf60a5be-bc9c-4ef2-9135-8ba3752edb7a.jpg?v=1603843580","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-phantom-tollbooth-9780394820378","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
