I’m so excited to see this movie:

Yes, I know it’s a children’s tale, but I really loved it as a book!

The book is about two children, Henry and his sister, who listen to their grandfather tell the story of the town of Chewandswallow, where the weather comes three times a day, at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and is always food and beverages. The rain is juice and soup, the snow is mashed potatoes, and the wind brings hamburgers. Because of this phenomenon, there are no grocery stores. However, when floods and storms of giant food come, the population is forced to leave Chewandswallow on boats made of bread, and adapt to their new lives in our world where the sky doesn’t feed you. [Imagine not having to worry about food! All you have to think about is cheap health insurance or bargain clothes!]–Wikipedia
I guess I love the “impossibility” of it, as well as the great adventure! I had a great time imagining what it would be like to have your food literally drop from the sky.
I wonder if the movie will be as great! Can’t wait!
Coming soon!
Sana totoo! Bibili kami ng bahay dyan!
