Is #ThePhantomTollbooth good? I've never read it. At least I don't think I have. Is it a fun read? #books #KidsLit #SciFi?

The Phantom Tollbooth
A man with white hair stands nose to nose with a HUGE brown dog. The do looks annoyed. A watch is on the dog. I can't tell if it is a part of the dog, sewn onto the dog, or just resting beside him. I suspect it's part of his body.

@Phangurl It has been heavily compared to Alice in Wonderland. It’s very whacky in a similar sense. However imagine the writer was an elementary school teacher. Best way to describe it. It’s fantasy but loosely in the way that a Dr. Seuss story can be classified as fantasy.

Hiti

हिति , in Nepāl Bhāṣā, is the word for a shared community water tap. Even in modern Newar cities, these ancient structures still pour out fresh mountain water piped through ancient underground filters and conduits. They are a place to wash, to talk, to drink, to meet the locals: a nourishing, refreshing social-ecological place.
