The Phantom TollboothWith almost 4 million copies sold over 50 years after its original publication, generations of readers have now journeyed with Milo to the Lands Beyond in this beloved classic that Philip Pullman says "comes up bright and new every time I read it . . . it will continue to charm and delight for a very long time yet. And teach us some wisdom, too." Enriched by Jules Feiffer's splendid illustrations, the wit, wisdom, and wordplay of Norton Juster's
With almost 4 million copies sold over 50 years after its original publication, generations of readers have now journeyed with Milo to the Lands Beyond in this beloved classic that Philip Pullman says "comes up bright and new every time I read it . . . it will continue to charm and delight for a very long time yet. And teach us some wisdom, too." Enriched by Jules Feiffer's splendid illustrations, the wit, wisdom, and wordplay of Norton Juster's offbeat fantasy are as beguiling as ever. For Milo, everything's a bore. When a tollbooth mysteriously appears in his room, he drives through only because he's got nothing better to do. But on the other side, things seem different. Milo visits the Island of Conclusions (you get there by jumping), learns about time from a ticking watchdog named Tock, and even embarks on a quest to rescue Rhyme and Reason. Somewhere along the way, Milo realizes something astonishing. Life is far from dull. In fact, it's exciting beyond his wildest dreamsBinding Type: Hardcover

Relatable at any age
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book for my nephew but read it myself and found the reminders good for my adult soul, and I like the soft, tasteful illustrations. This is a sweet book made extra special with the fact the author wrote it in conjunction with her younger son.

A Must Read!
Format: Hardcover
Highly recommend Any Day Emotions! Debra Fileta uses creative similes to explain our emotions to the littles. She goes beyond just the basic happy and sad emotions you typically hear about in children’s books to the less talked about emotions such as jealousy and guilt. With each emotion she gives a practical, kid friendly step to live an emotionally healthy life. Any Day Emotions is a fun book to teach your littles about emotions in a way that points them back to their Creator. The beautiful illustrations are the perfect touch to tie it all together!

A good and easy “self-help” book for parents to “help” their child with their emotions! LOVE IT!
Format: Hardcover
Wow! I love that this book was written by a licensed professional counselor! I love that I’m familiar with this author’s other books which I own and have read. I love that this book addresses so many emotions a child will have! My favorite is “Jealous” because she perfectly depicts a birthday party and we all know that siblings can easily become jealous over all the attention, the gifts, the cake…
The pictures pair beautifully with the words/emotions. I love this illustrator, she is amazing and gifted! You are easily drawn in by the details and colors in each picture! It really gives my child lots of images and things to look at and relate to as you read to them.
I also love the emotion “Peaceful” because when you look at the illustrations of the water and floating on a tube while your hand is resting in the water and you are gently kicking your feet, that looks and feels peaceful and I know my child can relate to that.
This is a very easy to understand book. I loved that each emotion was on two pages and you didn’t need to turn the page, it was all there for you to process and read. The entire explanation of the emotion was a simple way for my child to grasp the concept and give simple choices on how to deal with the emotion. For me including God in the equation was awesome and important and that was also simple and easy to understand.

A beautiful and meaningful book!
Format: Hardcover
I absolutely love this book! The illustrations are gorgeous, and the book does such a great job helping kids understand their feelings and how to handle them. It’s been so helpful for talking with my kids about their emotions in a simple, meaningful way. I also love how the author brings God into it—it’s such a sweet reminder that He cares about every feeling we have. Highly recommend for any parent!

I love this book!
Format: Hardcover
I really love this book and the beautiful whimsical illustrations. I love the way it identifies and affirms each emotion we/our children/grandchildren have - all the while turning us (and them) to faith in Jesus and God's constant loving care. I have bought it for my grandkids and am so glad to give this to them as a tool to help them understand things they are feeling and be able to express those feelings appropriately and know they are never alone!
