Kate’s 2¢: “1-800-Where-R-You?” by Meggin Cabot
“1-800-Where-R-You?” by Meggin Cabot
After I donated my first illustrated children’s book, “The Night Search”, to BookShare, I thought I should learn how to down-load a book. “1-800-Where-R-You” popped up first, so I clicked on it. The process is quite a bit more complicated than that, but the book transferred to my Victor Stream Reader.
I enjoyed the story and can see where 9th graders would be fascinated by it also. “Code Cassandra” is one in a series of Jess stories.
From Wikipedia The Free Encyclopedia
Meggin Patricia Cabot was born on February 1, 1967, in Bloomington, Indiana. After she graduated from Indiana University, Cabot moved to New York City, with the original aim of pursuing a career as an illustrator. However, she soon quit this job and started working as an assistant manager of the freshman dormitory at New York University.[9]
Personal life[edit]
Meg Cabot married financial writer and poet, Benjamin D. Egnatz on April 1, 1993. Their wedding date,April Fool’s Day, was a deliberate play on her husband’s belief that only fools get married in the first place. The wedding was an elopement in Italy.[10] Her novel Every Boy’s Got One is loosely based on her elopement.[11]
She has cats, Henrietta (a one-eyed cat) (1993-Jan 2013), and Gem, about whom she often blogs.[12]
After living in Indiana, California, New York, and France, she now lives in Key West, FL with her husband.[13]

Kate’s 2¢: “The Night Search” by Kate Chamberlin
“The Night Search” by Kate Chamberlin
On February 23, 2023, I donated my first illustrated children’s book, “The Night Search” to BookShare, a collection of books accessible to print disabled people.
When I listened to my book, I was disappointed that there was so much information warning people that they had to have a print disability to access this boo and others in the collection and the lengthy disclaimer about something bad happening after you read this story. Why not just go straight to the story?
The other surprise I had, was that in the middle of the book, Heather’s name is changed to Grace. We looked in the print addition from which we scanned the submission, and the name Grace is not in the print edition. Go figure! Still, I’m delighted to have my book in an accessible format for many people.
Synopsis:
The Night Search
Heather, who is blind, resists using her white cane until she tries to find her puppy outdoors at night, an experience that helps her accept her cane as a valuable helper.
