==Young Sam== Young Sam (full title: [[The Honourable|The Hon]]. Samuel "''Young Sam''" Vimes II) is Sam and Sybil Vimes' son and only child; he was born at the end of the events in ''Night Watch'', is about fourteen months old by the time of ''[[Thud!]]'', and at the age of six years by the time of the events of ''[[Snuff (Pratchett novel)|Snuff]]''. His birth was difficult, and Vimes paid [[Doctor "Mossy" Lawn]] a large sum of money in gratitude for saving Sybil's and the baby's lives. Lawn has since founded the Lady Sybil Free Hospital. Since his son's birth, Vimes discovered a new cause in life: "arriving at home every day at six o' clock sharp to read ''[[Where's My Cow?]]'' to him, an obligation that supersedes crime, conspiracy or international negotiations—his thinking being that if he ever missed it for a good reason, he might miss it for a bad reason, and that this might apply to everything he does, such as employing less-than-ethical methods in the pursuit of crime".<ref name="thud">''[[Thud!]]''</ref> In ''[[Snuff (Pratchett novel)|Snuff]]'', it is highlighted that not only can Young Sam read, but that he is quite advanced and now reads to his father. It is also shown that he is currently quite stuck on the study of poo, having read many books written by one Miss Felicity Beedle, whom he knows as "''the poo lady''", and who has also written such books as ''Where's My Cow?'', ''The World of Poo'', ''Melvin and the Enormous Boil'', ''Geoffrey and the Magic Pillow Case'' and ''The Little Duckling Who Thought He Was an Elephant''.
