Description

In this volume of The Complete Peanuts, Schulz's iconic comic strip celebrates its 40th birthday! In our latest paperback volume, welcome a new character to the cast of Peanuts - Olaf! Snoopy's brother Olaf comes to visit, and, humiliatingly, winds up winning the "Ugly Dog" contest. In other news, Peppermint Patty is stuck in dreaded summer school, while all her friends have a blast at camp. Marcie begins to crack under the pressure of her perfectionism. Lucy continues to showcase her endearing ineptitude on the baseball field. Linus ramps up his Great Pumpkin proselytizing with the "Great Pumpkin Movement," complete with literature to pass out door to door. And Charlie Brown finally gets a girlfriend - but she thinks his name is Brownie Charles! Also, this season, a new box set collects the latest two volumes (Vols. 19 and 20) of the paperback series. The Complete Peanuts is the publishing project that launched a renaissance in comic strip publishing and the only place Charles M. Schulz's classic has ever been collected in its entirety. Featuring impeccable production values, each volume of this series features two successive years of newspaper strips (dailies and Sundays), plus bonus material such as celebrity introductions, interviews, and a brief biography of Schulz himself.
