Happy Birthday to the legendary Terry Pratchett, whose imagination has whisked us away on flying carpets, introduced us to clever rodents with degrees in philosophy, and made Death himself oddly charming. With over 65 million books sold worldwide, your wit and wisdom continue to enchant readers of all ages—proving that laughter truly is timeless.From "The Carpet People" weaving magic into our lives, through the hilarious yet profound adventures in "Snuff," to winning hearts (and a Carnegie Medal!) with "The Amazing Maurice and his Educated Rodents," you've shown us that fantasy can be both comic genius and deeply insightful. Here's hoping your birthday celebration is as delightfully absurd as Discworld itself!
