A bored little boy thinks everything is a waste of time until he drives through a mysterious turnpike tollbooth in a toy car. His customary bored attitude lands him in the doldrums, but he is rescued by a magical dog and together the pair embark on a journey through the Kingdom of Wisdom. Musical mix of live action and animation starring Butch Patrick (TV's "The Munsters") and featuring the vocal talents of Mel Blanc. Based on the popular children's book by Norton Juster.
