Published in 1961, The Phantom Tollbooth was quickly heralded as both a classic of children’s literature and as a modern fairy tale capable of seducing readers of all ages. Fifty years later it’s as delightful as ever. Writer Norton Juster and illustrator Jules Feiffer share stories about the creation of their landmark book and answer questions from the audience.

When not writing best sellers Juster used to teach and practice architecture; Feiffer is a Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist, illustrator, and writer.
