Goodreads asked Gail Nelson:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Gail Nelson My twins! They're great kids, and when we started homeschooling they had questions that we didn't necessarily know how to answer. We were learning too, and I always thought that a book like this would have been handy. The twins in the story learn to see that learning is everywhere, and you don't always have to be in a school to do it.
