{{quote|''They called themselves the Munrungs. It meant The People, or The True Human Beings. It's what most people call themselves, to begin with. And then one day the tribe meets some other people and give them a name like The Other People or, if it's not been a good day, The Enemy. If only they'd think up a name like Some More True Human Beings, it'd save a lot of trouble later on.''}} |

''"This book had two authors, and they were both the same person"'': A novel by [[Terry Pratchett]] which was originally published in 1971, but was later [[Old Shame|re-written]] by the author when his work became more widespread and well-known. ''The Carpet People'' contains much of the humour and some of the concepts which later became a major part of the ''[[Discworld]]'' series, as well as parodies of everyday objects from our world. Before creating the Discworld, Terry Pratchett wrote about two different flat worlds, in this novel, and ''Strata''. |
