Oh, yes! I really like that book.

Ummm . . . I guess my favorite part is the Island of Conclusions, reachable only by jumping.

I don't have a favorite character but I like the Whether Man, the Humbug, the tall/small/fat/thin man, and the Soundkeeper (I find listening to silence very amusing). My favorite place is the island of conclusions and my favorite event is the Soundkeeper's fortress (The feast in Dictionopolis comes in second.

Hi!

I really like the Phantom Tollbooth! My favorite character is probably the Humbug - he is SO funny. My favorite place would be the Doldrums since I'm in it so often! *haha* And my favorite event would be when the people in the Doldrums (I can't remember what they are called) are talking about their schedule. It's perfectly silly because it's the definition of lazy. :D What are YOUR favorite character, place, and event? I'm excited to hear what you like!
