Title: The Wee Free Men
Author(s): Terry Pratchett
Release year: 2003
Publisher: Doubleday
Why in Database: This book is unusual, because turtles are… only in the polish version (in Dorota Malinowska-Grupińska’s translation), but not in the original. We mention it as a curiosity. Said excerpt in english:
Anyway, she preferred the witches to the smug handsome princes and especially to the stupid smirking princesses, who didn’t have the sense of a beetle.
Polish version of this fragment and our translation of that, back into English:
W każdym razie czarownice podobały jej się bardziej niż dumni przystojni książęta, a na pewno dużo bardziej niż te głupie uśmiechające się z wyższością księżniczki, które najbardziej przypominały jej żółwie.
In any case, she liked witches more than proud handsome princes, and certainly much more than those silly smiling princesses who resembled turtles.
