James Seger asked Ben Guterson:

I don't normally read YA novels, but I saw you at the recent Tweens Read event outside of Houston. You were discussing The Einsteins of Vista Point and it sounded compelling. I've just started the book and am glad I took a chance on it. Was the Tower based on any real place you saw? You may have mentioned this at Tweens Read, but I was wrangling five eleven year olds.

Ben Guterson Many thanks for reaching out, James--and I hope you enjoyed the book! The Tower was 100% based on a real place--take a peek here for more info and a photo: https://benguterson.com/the-einsteins... Tweens Read was fantastic--glad I had a chance to join in all the fun! Best wishes--and thanks, again, for the note. Regards--Ben Guterson
