THE PHANTOM TOLLBOOTH BY Norton Juster Page 65~80
Now Milo stays with the old woman who is called Which. After he knows the story about Which, he wants to help her. But it is so difficult and needs two girls Rhyme and Reason. The Which tells them another story about Rhyme and Reason. Long long ago, a young prince came to this land and fight with the evil. finally he beat the evil and have this land to bulid his own city. He made everything becames better. When his son grew up, he let them to bulid their own city. The two boys built different cities which is word and number. But they all try to be better than the other person and fight with each other. So they just went to ask their sisters who are beautiful and smart. Both of the two girls think that words and number are of equal value.
But when their brothers knew that , they felt anger and sent their sisters far away from this land.
It is really a long story about Rhyme and Reason. I don't know why thier brothers try to know about words and numbers which are important. It is so carzy. I can't think if there is neither words nor numbers, what can we do. Maybe they need to think more about how to make their cities became better not just to fight for the ground . I like their sisters. They like to help other people and try to make their father's city keep good. They tell the true to their brothers, but now they are sent far away. Maybe in our world, if we think more about other people not just ourseves, everyone will live in peace and happy. The city or country also will become better and better.

Can you think of anything in the real world that is similar to the fight between words and numbers in the book?
