Written in 1961 by Norton Juster, The Phantom Tollbooth is a beloved children’s book that has become a staple of the children’s section at the library.
The book tells the story of Milo, a bored boy who can find no enjoyment out of anything in his life.
The film version will blend live-action with digital effects in order to recreate the more fantastical setting and characters.
One day, he receives a mysterious tollbooth and, assuming it to be a toy, drives through it in his toy car.
