Phantom Tollbooth Story from one of our backers

I just had to share this lovely comment that one of our kickstarter backers posted. So wonderful to see how this book matters to people! "Here is my story about The Phantom Tollbooth.

When I went off to college in 1997 I took my beat up copy of the book as a kind of literary security blanket. There was a boy in the room next door who also had a copy on his bookshelf. We started dating pretty much right away. We got married a few years after graduation. And earlier this year we welcomed our first child. His middle name is Milo."

Over the $2000 mark

I cannot thank our supporters enough!  Although we will do it personally soon - as soon as I'm over the shock of gratitude.  In just 1 day there are 31 backers (as of now!) and just over $2000 in pledges.  Let's continue this amazing progress and make sure we get this film funded and bring Norton Juster and Jules Feiffer to the screen. There's no doubt that they deserve it, and anyway, they're hilarious!
