Customer Reviews

Happiness is

A work by Schulz. The cover art alone make the book worth having. Great cartoons and words of wisdom from the best.

Charles Schulz At His Best!

I absolutely adored this book and so would any true fan of Charles Schulz! I enjoyed the text that went along with his cartoons in explaining how he got his ideas and how the Peanuts gang came to be. I feel that the cartoons chosen for this book are wonderful and this book remains a very special part of my collection!

Worthy Tribute

A good volume to commemorate the career of one of the greatest cartoonists of all time. It's going to be fifty years, very soon!

A nice, worthwhile collection

This is a pretty good collection, although I think I would have enjoyed it more if Schulz has structured it like Scott Adams' recent "Seven Years of Highly Defective People" and Bill Watterson's "Tenth Anniversary Calvin & Hobbes" book, with notes about the comics underneath them, in the collection itself. But it's still good, with a (for some reason) out of order year of "Peanuts" strips and a very interesting, long essay about the strip by Schulz. The first part of the book is like a companion/follow-up to "Charlie Brown, Snoopy and Me."
