Illustrator Lee White has illustrated all kinds of quirky concepts for books and magazines, including talking houses! His work on his most recent picture book Stop That Nose! was hailed as "comic oil illustrations that capture every action-packed antic of the acrobatic nose and its ensuing managerie" by Kirkus Reviews. Mr. White, a graduate of the Art Center College of Design, lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife and their three lazy cats.

Présentation de l'éditeur

After the Petersons leave for vacation, their house decides it wants to take a holiday, too! But the different parts of the house can’t agree on where to go. Finally, the sunporch suggests the house go to the beach. The basement refuses "to rise to the occasion," but the rest of the house follows the front door as it leads the way—and the house has a vacation that it will never forget! Adding to the appeal are Lee White’s oil and colored pencil illustrations, which bring this "home away from home" tale to a safe and sound conclusion.
