Let's make this birthday one to remember.

86 years old (Born on April 20, 1939)

Happy Birthday to the one and only Peter S. Beagle! Anyone who convinced generations that unicorns weren't just "horse-cosplaying narwhals" deserves all the praise in fantasy-land. You enchanted our imaginations, made us laugh, cry—and even question why we've never spotted horned horses munching daisies near our back fences.

Congratulations on receiving the prestigious World Fantasy Award for Lifetime Achievement—a well-earned honor that's nearly as rare as a unicorn sighting itself! Thank you for gifting readers with legendary stories that blend deep wisdom and humor seamlessly. May your birthday be magical enough to make Schmendrick himself jealous—cheers!
