The word moot is an archaic term meaning "argue, debate, discuss." In early English history, a moot was a meeting to discuss local affairs. Moot comes from the Old English gemot, meaning "meeting."

Author: Kate DiCamillo
Nice interview on Minnesota Public Radio with the amazing Kate DiCamillo. She is discussing her new book Mercy Watson to the Rescue. She has 4 books in this series finished now.
She understands that as a writer she must be true to the characters and not try to teach a lesson. Of course in her deft hands the deeper meanings shine through.
She just wants to make adults and children laugh.
She is a very funny person and always entertaining to listen to.
