How to Celebrate International Beaver Day?🍿🦫📖🦁

Hoppers (2026)

Every April 7th

Beavers have been on my radar since April Fool's Day, when I went to the cinema and saw the new Pixar movie 'Hoppers', mainly because my nephew and his wife, who is from Hong Kong, just had a baby girl and named her Mabel, not because of the main character in 'Hoppers' is an Asian/American character, as they told me that they hadn't heard of the movie or the character until I mentioned seeing the film and that the main character is named Mabel.

Mabel is played by Korean/American actress/actor Piper Joy Curda, who according to Wikipedia is on the asexual spectrum, and uses both she/her and they/them pronouns.

I saw on the 'Days of the Year' website that yesterday was 'International Asexuality Day' and wondered what that was about, so now I know, I guess?

Yesterday was also 'Army Day' and I see that Piper Joy Curda's father was the first Korean American to reach the rank of one-star general in the United States Army Reserve.

Same day as Easter Monday

Piper Joy Curda's mother is of Scottish descent and yesterday was also 'National Tartan Day' funnily enough:-)

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

I'd just read 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' for the first time in my life over the Easter weekend and just watched the 2005 Disney movie of the book for the first time also, noticing that beavers are main characters in the book and movie. 

Oddly enough, not knowing about the Lion dying and being resurrected until reading the book/watching the movie, I finished the book on Easter Sunday and on Monday watched the You Tube from The Liberal Catholic Church that was recorded on Sunday then uploaded to You Tube, where 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' is mentioned:-)

If beavers had have been mentioned in that You Tube, I would have been more than impressed.

Happy 'International Beaver Day' and go see 'Hoppers', if you haven't seen it already.
