Let's make this birthday one to remember.

90 years old (Born on October 04, 1934)

Happy Birthday, Rudy Wiebe! Another year wiser and still tempting Big Bear with your literary genius. Your novels have taken us on journeys through history, wilderness, and the human heart—though we're still discovering strangers along the way!

From Goshen College to University of Alberta classrooms, you've inspired countless students (and perhaps confused a few) with your brilliant storytelling. May this birthday bring you as much joy as readers find in your timeless tales—and may you continue writing stories that make us laugh, ponder deeply…and occasionally scratch our heads.

Here's to another chapter filled with adventure and acclaim!
