I have a question, why did you call your book The Kaledonotes?
I am often asked many questions about this book, so I created a blog post that gives more information about the book.

Here is the answer to your question, “Where did the name ‘Kaleidonotes’ come from?
‘Kalos’ is Greek for ‘beautiful’, and ‘eidos’ is Greek for ‘form’. So the name ‘Kaleidonotes’ means ‘beautifully formed’ notes! When my husband and I made the book (2000-2001), we enjoyed creating a new, unusual word.
Thanks for writing, Reese!
You came to my school at spring creek the other day and I just wanted to say that you and your husband are funny but you are two really cool people! I appreciate that you came to our school to do that and I also appreciate your interest in that! Thanks very, very, very much for you time in what you do for us!😇
