A Great Snoopy Book Review

"Being A Dog Is A Full-Time Job", strips from 1989, was very funny! Join the Peanuts characters on tons of new zany adventures! For, example we met another one of Snoopy's brothers Olaf!!! Lucy enters him in an "ugly dog" contest(Isn't that just like her?). Peppermint Patty goes to summer school!! She's so mad Marcie and Charlie Brown go to camp, she sneaks away to camp!!And plus, an "old friend" of Charlie Brown's calls and wants to meet him at the mall!! Could this girl have really been an "old friend"??!! To reveal more in this delightful book would be crazy!! It's funny, because I was born in 1989!! Have fun with this one!

Dogs are Worth It... Most of the Time

This comic strips from 1993 are in my opinion... really funny! For an example of some strips, Peppermint Patty always taunts Charlie Brown to ask him if he loves her! Another year of Peanuts!

its not 5 stars!!!!!! its 50000000000000000000000 stars!!!

this book is the best book simply because charles shultz wrote it

Dog-gone funny! This reviewer gives it Five Bones!

Being a dog is a full-time job, indeed...as Snoopy's wacky antics will certainly convince you. Snoopy pulls various pranks on the adorable Peanuts children that will have you laughing until your eyes bleed! Laugh as Schroeder repels Lucy's wanton advances, and Peppermint Patty plays both sides of the ball! Fun for the entire family, even distant cousins!

all around good humor

Charles schutlz has outdone himself again and made a great collection.The book is a great way to help keep the sprits of anyone who feels down or just needs a smile.Snoopy will always be there to make you laugh and Charlie brown will always to be there to be the butt of Lucy's jokes.
