More Peanuts kids books

There haven’t been a lot of new Peanuts kids books being announced lately. You may not have realized it, but I sure did. It was certainly a switch from the avalanche we were getting before. Up until yesterday, we only had one kids book upcoming on the Upcoming Peanuts Book List. Today, I’ve added two more, both shipping in October for holiday sales: a hardcover called Peanuts Holiday Treasury (I’m not certain what this one is, but I’m guessing it’s a collection of previously published adaptations of animated specials), and a board book named Baby Snoopy Santa, which is the latest in a series of board books where each page is a different shape, making a three-dimensional image when closed.

Neither of these books is yet available for preorder.
