Why read it?
1 author picked The Carpet People as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Did you know that your carpet was home to various tribes of people? Terry Pratchett did. This is the story of two brothers who live in said carpet. They must leave their village before it is destroyed by the Fray. It’s Terry Pratchett, need I say more?

From Andrew's list on fantasy and sci-fi to make you laugh.
