Demian's Thoughts:

This stands out as one of the strangest books in the series. The World of Dreams section is surreal, the World of Fantasy Creatures features a vampire riding a Brontosaurus, and at one point you will be given any wish in the world if you can find 40 words that use the letters in MANTICORES. Wonderful stuff!

Fireguard's Thoughts:

Here we have another Which Way Book that can take you on one of three fantastic journeys. I never much cared for the Earth of the future, which is a shame to me because it seems to get the most space, but the other worlds were pretty interesting. Worth a look.
