Not sure about the _exact_ line (I looked it up, put the book away, and
typed the message) but yes, it's from Reaper Man.

Well... if you'd have gone to the same high school I did, you wouldn't be
so sure about that :)

Still, I don't think I've read any English-language children's books (with
the exception of The Hobbit :) but I did read all of the Discworld books
I've managed to get my hands on (that is, everything up to and including
Hogfather; I'm not sure if there are any new ones).
