The Genie of Sutton Place is a 1973 supernatural young adult novel by George Selden, who was most famous for The Cricket in Times Square.

Sutton Place was Selden's second most popular novel after the Times Square series, but as it began to deal with more mature themes, its accessibility to children was somewhat more limited.

Together with William Sleator, this makes him the second widely read bisexual children's book writer, cultural prejudice of which required silence at a time when HIV was ravaging the gay-bisex community.

Interactions of absolute power (supernatural) vs. daily life are examined; action and adventure unfold in conjunction with a transformed dog.

Timothy will need the help of an ancient Arabian genie, his late father's journal, and dumb luck to keep his cover and save Sam.
