Let's make this birthday one to remember.

77 years old (Born on December 07, 1947)

Happy Birthday, Anne Fine! May your day be filled with more laughter than Madame Doubtfire's antics and fewer mishaps than Flour Babies in a classroom. Your stories have delighted generations—proving that humor, heart, and mischief never go out of style.

From the unforgettable charm of Goggle-Eyes to the haunting brilliance of The Tulip Touch, you've captured imaginations worldwide. As Britain's second Children's Laureate (2001-2003), you championed reading with wit and warmth. Here's wishing you another year as timelessly entertaining as your beloved books—and may all life's plot twists bring joy worthy of one of your delightful tales!
