Does The Phantom Tollbooth have anything to do with math?

Answer 1

In some parts of the book, yes. But, there aren't too many.

No, not really. There is a land called Digitopolis in it. That is ruled by the Mathemagician. He does a little math for someone to see, but other then that . . . . not really.
