Peanuts books on their way (some, rather sooner than others)

Don’t Give Up, Charlie Brown!, the full color gift book, is now shipping. And you can now preorder March’s The Dirt on Pig Pen, as well as the two Complete Peanuts volumes for 2008: the 1967-1968 volume, and 1969-1970. I don’t recommend placing those preorders now – you’ll pay full price if you do. You can, however, now order January’s It’s Your First Crush, Charlie Brown! at about three bucks off. And, according to the Amazon database, you’ll be happy to know that Snoopy Features as the Tennis Ace will ship on March 20th, 2301. We do not recommend preordering that now.

(Yes, yes, I know that …Tennis Ace is actually an already-published British book. I just found a silly little database error to be funny.)
