Reseña del editor:

When Josh, his parents, grandfather and eight-year-old brother move into the old Tilton House, they discover such strange things as talking rats, a dimmer switch that renders the house invisible and a powder that makes objects grow.

Biografía del autor:

TOM LLEWELLYN grew up in a drafty, old house (without tilting floors) on the shores of the Puget Sound. One winter, the house got so cold that the water in the toilet actually froze. Tom survived (thanks to plenty of blankets) and went on to study creative writing at the University of Washington in Seattle. He has worked as a trade journalist and copywriter, and is the cofounder of the guerrilla art project, Beautiful Angle. Tom lives with his wife and four rambunctious children in a Victorian-era home (with tilting floors) in Tacoma, Washington, the city which provides the setting for The Tilting House.

Atlanta-based illustrator SARAH WATTS is a recent graduate of the Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota, Florida. Sarah felt a strong connection with The Tilting House since the story reminded her of an old house she lived in as a child. She drew inspiration for the art in this book from vintage toy catalogs, antique packaging, Japanese woodcuts, and the work of Edward Gorey and Tim Burton.
