INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Pratchett, Terry

The Carpet People

(4) 4-6 In this reworking of a story that he first wrote at seventeen, Pratchett tells of the Munrungs, a race of tiny beings who live in the carpet. It's a quest/survival tale with lashings of dotty humor and the author's own energetic line drawings. The novel doesn't entirely hang together, but Pratchett is never dull and this is a fascinating piece of juvenilia.
