This book is about a boy named Milo who never knows what to do and one day he gets a present that is a tollbooth. With the tollbooth he goes to a country called Dictionapolis. The king of Dictionapolis' worst enemy is his brother, the king of Digitopolis. Milo finds out that the two kings will only be friends if the princesses Rhyme and Reason come back from the prison they are in. So Milo and his 2 friends, the Humbug and a dog named Tock, set off to bring Rhyme and Reason back. What I liked best about the book was that the characters were very funny and said weird and funny things.
