In Edith Hamilton’s Mythology the story of Cronous illustrates explation of a violent and pain in Cronous. “Cronous had swalloed his children because that his children was destined.” My second reason is how Cronous eat’s his children because he is a child abussor. “Cronous is had found out that one of his children’s was destined.” My third reason why Cronous is a bad father is because you can’t eat your children and then next you eat a stone now that is nasty. “His wife Crete gave him a wrapped clothes with a stone inside it and he swalloed the stone whole.” Cronus is a bad father; his wife is very lucky she got to switch Zeus with a rock. “But when Rhea was bore Zeus, her sixth child, she succeeded in having him secretly carried off to Crete, while she gave her hussband a great stone covered in swaddiling clotes.”

There is this young man name Milo. Once when he came home from school there was miniature Tollbooth laying on his bed and a map to Lands Beyond. So he had went to Lands Beyond. Once he was going to the Lands Beyond he was stopped at this place called Doldrums, where thinking and laughing is not allowed. However, he was rescued by a watchdog had a clock on him to and it’s name was Tock. So him and Tock went on to find Dictionlopis.
Their first stop of the Lands Beyond was Dictionopils. In Dictionopils they went to the market place where all of the letters where sold and bought. The altercation between Spelling Bee and the Humbug, Milo and Tock had gone to prison the officer who imprisoned them was by the short Officer Shrift. While Milo was in prison he had a history lessoned about Wisdom. It’s two rulers King Azaz the Unabridged and the Mathemagican, had two adopted two younger sister, Rhyme and Reason.Everyone had lived wonderful until the rulers disagreed about there sister’s answer that letters and numbers were equally important. So the two rulers had banished the sister’s in the Castle Air. While Officer Shrift loved to put people in jail he didn’t like to keep them there, so Milo and Tock left the dugong, and went to attend at the banquet with King Azaz, where they eat there words. King Azaz, and everyone else who were at the banquet were talking about rescuing to princess from the castle.
In Digitopolis, their first stop was the mine were numbers were dug up and the stones was thrown away. In Digitopolis they ate subtraction stew that made their dinner hungrier. The mathematician had just erased the mine with his magic eraser. Him and Milo were talking about rescuing the princess from the castle. From all of the trouble in the mountain of Ignorance trying to reach the castle in the air, and Milo did reach it from the entire obstacle they had to go through. Once they rescued the princess, they had agreed to come back to Wisdom. There were a three-day celebration about the princess Rhyme and Reason. Milo says goodbye and drives off, feeling he has been away several weeks. Off ahead in the road he spies the tollbooth and drives through. Suddenly he is back in his own room. So Milo had went back to school, and there was a note for him and it says “”FOR MILO, WHO NOW KNOWS THE WAY.” Milo had came sad and he hopes that the tollbooth comes back some day. He looked around, figured out that the world is a beatifull and an enchanting place to stay.
That is my book report of “The Phantom Tollbooth”

Abraham Lincoln:
Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four hours sharpening the axe.
The person who had said this quote was Abraham Lincoln. He was the 16th president of the United States of America. I think why he had said this quote is because he was told to do something, but he have to prepare for the job before he done it. I think that this quote means to me is I have to prepare for something before I really do my job. This also helps me in life so I can make good things before I do something on the job it helps me in life so I can do really good things in my life so I need to do good things in my life.
