Journey to the Ironclad Kingdom
Bennett lived on a small quiet street, in a small quiet town, where nothing ever happens. It just so happens to be a law of the universe that in a place where nothing ever happens, something is always just around the corner.
His normal, everyday life is upended when his curiosity leads to a dwarf showing up at his house and enlisting him to save the queen of the Ironclad Kingdom from the grips of a Dark Wizard.
Along the way, he learns the power of truth, the importance of asking questions, and the age old lesson that all curious people learn at one point or when you return from an adventure, you’re never quite the same person as you had been when you left.

My buddy wrote a Phantom Tollbooth x LOTR style fantasy novel for his nephew and it's charming and funny! Intended for younger audiences but if you still recognize the Wisdom of Children (poop is hilarious, school sucks/is for nerds) then I'd pick it up and knock it out in an afternoon.
