Where Are You, Wilbert? by Bárdur Oskarsson is a picture book about a small gray rat and her large gray friend, Wilbert. They are playing hide-and-seek. Wilbert is tough to find, so the rat asks a crocodile for help. Together, they hunt behind every tree they can see, and finally, the rat spots Wilbert. The illustrations are strange and lovely at the same time.
While I enjoyed the book, I did find the book a bit strange and hard to follow.
I received an ARC from Owlkids books via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Nice fresh movie
Contains spoilers, click to show
Shang Chi is a breath of fresh air in MCU films. It also shows its establishment of new set of heroes injucting into MCU after Avengers : End Game. There's Eternals slated to release in couple of months which again has new super heroes, and post credits suggest that Shang chi is linked to Doctor Strange, so you will be finding hints in upcoming spiderman and Dr strange.
Simu Liu has acted smoothly in his role and movie really impressed me in most parts.
Looking forward for other flicks down the line

Based on a true story
Based on the life and book by the same name by Susannah Cahalan, this movie follows the events of a 21 year old girl who suddenly begins experiencing strange flu-like symptoms. She goes to a doctor who tells her that all of her tests came back clear and there's nothing wrong with her. As she continues to work through the strange symptoms, they become increasingly severe. She begins to have seizures, psychotic episodes of paranoia, and is diagnosed with one mental illness after another. None of which explain why Susannah was previously a perfectly healthy 21 year old girl or what brought on the strange symptoms. Her family pushes to find answers where the team of doctors believe she belongs in a psychiatric facility. The movie is a little slow paced but I believe it was necessary to really encompass the severity and impact of the situation that Susannah and her family experienced. Definitely worth a watch.
