Summary: This book ranks with Alice in Wonderland's imagination!
Review: I first read this book for myself about 30 years ago as an adult. I then read it to my kids, and now I am reading it to my grandkids. I have given away at least ten copies to adults and children and will keep on doing so as long as it is published. I am 65 and I still love it, both as an adult and as an "older" child.

Summary: Intertesting book.
Review: The Phantom Tollbooth, written by Norton Juster, was a great and interesting book. It gives a lot of feeling and the characters jump out at you. I think that this is a hard-to-put-down book. Some individual phrases give you another look on things. The author is great and he has a very open mind. Three cheers for him.

Rating:
Summary: A terrific book that captured my interest and is addictive.
Review: This book is one of my favorite books. It is about a boy who dosen't like to do anything. He travels through a magical tollbooth to the lands of words and numbers. Throughout the book it leads up to the ending where he must rescue Rhyme and Reason from the Castle in the Air. It captured me and left me thinking about it for days! It is a very addictive book that I don't see how anyone could abandon it.

Review: Hi,I'm Ryan Ottenad and I'm 9 years old.This was one of the best books I've read because of it's description.It is also one of my favorites because of the imagination level,the whole book I was amazed of how well the story pictured in my mind.I hope some day I'll look back on that particular story and say"I remember doing a book report on that book." I hope if I have kids they will read The Phantom Tollbooth and say it's the best book they've ever read in their life. Then I'll read it to them and it will come back to me.

Summary: A must read for every child (and adult).
Review: I first read the book about 20 years ago and I lost myself in it. It turned my imagination on and the life lessons I learned from its pages has been as influential at age 30 as it was when I first read it. I can not say enough about the importance this book has had in my life and I can say with all honesty and sincerity that this book changed my life and helped to develop the man I am today. When the world gets to hectic, I think of the world that disappeared because no one had time to appreciate it. Fact of fiction, you decide. Thank you Mr. Juster

Summary: This is the best book I have ever read!!!!!!
Review: The phantom Tollbooth is a well-written, humorous book. By the middle of the book, I could tell that this book is one of the classics. It rates up there with The Secret Garden and James & the Giant Peach. I read it for hours on end...and hours...and hours... Every child in the world should read this book!

Summary: This childhood favorite makes me realize why I am who I am.
Review: I ran across a first edition of this book in a used book store recently, and was immediately whizzed back to the great childhood memory of reading it. As in "The Little Prince," there are lasting lessons here that haven't paled in 36 years. Like fortune-telling cards, this book can be re-read and re-interpreted to fit your life annually, with new learning and wonder each time. Hopefully, Juster is still alive to hear so many ring his praises. If you are new to "Tollbooth" you have such a treat in store. Susie Watson ([e-mail]

Summary:

This book is why I became a writer.
Review:

When I was a kid, this book gave me a love for language which I learned to couple with a sarcastic sense of humor. Now that I'm 34, I appreciate these gifts all the more. I try to read this book 2 or 3 times a year just to remind myself of some fundamental "Life 101" lessons. Thank you, Norton Juster.
