No. 143 - Shrek

It was raining earlier today so we took the kids to see the new Shrek movie, Shrek Forever After. This is the fourth movie in the popular Shrek series. It was fun. The kids really liked it. And what's not to like about the big tub of popcorn?

For the record, my favorite character is Donkey, voiced by Eddie Murphy.

I learned that the Shrek movies were based on a picture book written and illustrated in 1990 by William Steig. I also learned that the word Shrek comes from German (Schreck) and Yiddish (Shreck) words meaning "fear" or "terror."
