Our New Read

Debby has picked the book for June.  We will be reading The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster.  It is a fun, light read, and Debby has copies available if anyone needs to borrow one.  Here is a teaser of what it's about:

This ingenious fantasy centers around Milo, a bored ten-year-old who comes home to find a large toy tollbooth sitting in his room. Joining forces with a watchdog named Tock, Milo drives through the tollbooth's gates and begins a memorable journey. He meets such characters as the foolish, yet lovable Humbug, the Mathemagician, and the not-so-wicked "Which," Faintly Macabre, who gives Milo the "impossible" mission of returning two princesses to the Kingdom of Wisdom.

So, grab a copy from the library, or talk to Debby.  Happy reading!
