If you loved following Ben, Tom, and Lindy on their imaginative adventure to find the elusive Whangdoodle, you'll be swept up by Milo's journey through the mysterious Lands Beyond in The Phantom Tollbooth. Both books center around a driven quest, with clever obstacles and memorable characters that make each step of the journey feel magical and meaningful.

Much like the trio of siblings in The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles, you'll get to know an ensemble of clever, resourceful kids—Reynie, Sticky, Kate, and Constance—who must rely on their teamwork and distinct talents to unravel puzzles and outwit villains. The camaraderie and interplay among the cast will give you that same spark of adventure and friendship.

If you enjoyed watching the Potter siblings gain confidence and empathy as they ventured into the Whangdoodle's world, you'll be equally captivated by Meg Murry's transformation in A Wrinkle in Time. As Meg faces cosmic dangers and self-doubt, her journey of personal growth and resilience mirrors the heartwarming development found in Whangdoodles.

If the colorful lands, whimsical creatures, and inventive magical rules in The Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles enchanted you, you'll be delighted by the lush, imaginative world of Neverland in Peter Pan. Barrie’s descriptions of mermaids, pirates, and the ever-youthful Peter create a detailed fantasy setting that invites you to get lost in its magic.

If you smiled at the witty dialogue and playful twists of magic in Whangdoodles, you'll adore the misadventures of Jane and her siblings when they discover a coin that grants wishes—but only halfway. Half Magic captures the same sense of whimsy, humor, and magical mischief that makes Whangdoodles so delightful.
