The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster

My adult daughter (aged 25) wanted to read this again, having remembered it from her elementary school days. So we agreed to do this via Voxer, a messaging app. Each of us read a chapter at a time. She's an excellent narrator and this made the experience even more enjoyable. It was wonderful to hear of Milo's adventures with Tock and Humbug. Great ending, too. It had been since my own elementary school days that I'd read it, so it was quite a pleasure to heart the story again. This is a good one for adults to read to their children. It's like Sesame Street - great lessons for kids and great humor for the adults.
