Some parts got very boring. I think this book will be good for readers ages 7-10. This wasn't exactly the type of genre I would read, but I'm glad I read it .

I personally like how the author made Milo a dynamic character. In the beginning of the book, Milo was very bored and didn't know what to do with his life. At the end of the book, Milo is inspired and fascinated by the world rather than being bored and lazy. Overall, this was a great book. ]]> 2016-04-09 22:44:37 UTC https://padlet.com/rram22/mn9bhxr0pcab/wish/104898901 rram22 https://padlet.com/rram22/mn9bhxr0pcab/wish/104899435 This is the official trailer for the Phantom Tollbooth.

Usually the author goes into great detail of explaining everything. The first sentence of the the 2 chapter was "Once through the tollbooth, Milo finds himself speeding along a country highway." The author got to the adventure quickly. ]]> 2016-04-10 16:09:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rram22/mn9bhxr0pcab/wish/104928225
