Customer Reviews

Peabody and his boy, Sherman.

I grew up on Peabody and Sherman, so in school, I always got my dates right; however, the facts were a little skewed. I had to read Barbara Tuchman to correct these anomalies. For those who need this series, here is a quick synopsis. Mr. Peabody, a canine of superior intellect, realizes he needs to adopt a boy. In his search, he comes across Sherman. Mr. Peabody now realizes it is a bit difficult for boys to keep an apartment (not potty training). Therefore, as a birthday present, he builds a Wayback Machine. The machine itself is a "should have been" machine, not a "what was" machine, and this is where the fun starts. Although I grew up on Peabody and Sherman, I never really knew how it all started. “The best of Peabody and Sherman” begins by telling how Mr. Peabody adopted Sherman, and now everything is in perspective. Oh, maybe with one exception or two, this is still my history. I have great fun anticipating the pun at the end of each episode; then I tried to do one pun better. Now, before you go out in the world, you'd better read “The March of Folly: From Troy to Vietnam” by Barbara Tuchman.
