The Night Gardener by Jonathan Auxier

4.0

The Night Gardener is a fantastically creepy story about to two orphan children sent to work for a family in a Gothic house. The family doesn't seem to bothered by a large tree that is slowly merging with house. As the story progresses, each character becomes a washed out caricature of the talisman of the own choosing. The two orphan children fight hard to find a way to protect themselves from y magic of the house and it's effect on the inhabitants. Great read in the dark, stormy night book for tweens.
