Redwall Fantasy Book is coming out as a Netflix movie by Ruth Paget

Redwall Children’s Fantasy Book is Now Coming Out as a Netflix Movie  by Ruth Paget

The small happy mice of Mossflower Wood have to defend themselves against the evil fat rat named Clany in this improbable hit set in a medieval abbey written by Brian Jacques.

This was my favorite fantasy book when I worked as a youth services librarian that I also recommended to my own daughter Florence Paget and Minecraft players.

Fields Medal Goes to UChicago’s Yu Deng reposted by Ruth Paget

The Fields Medal in Mathematics, awarded every four years, has been awarded to Yu Deng from the University of Chicago in May 2026.

Information about Yu Deng’s research follows in the University of Chicago news article below:

https://news.uchicago.edu/story/uchicago-prof-yu-deng-receives-fields-medal-highest-honor-mathematics?utm_medium=07.28email&utm_source=UChicagoNews&mkt_tok=MjUwLUNRSC05MzYAAAGjSMC2sEQNlR7WIuwrtJeAG-ySgvMuCcnV4Xd2mdW06wcWCxOnFx1Lupdo7wQOQ1vSI6b5GuBPLubU94ExCSm-yumDAlzoQP-zihpM-zKN5CuT4Ss

I think it is interesting that Yu Deng played the game of Go as a child and teen.
