2009’s Great Pumpkin, 2010 edition

Last year I took a look at a “Special Hallmark Edition” book adaptation of It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. As I theorized then, this year’s Running Press edition appears to be the same adaptation, but with some of the differences which we saw between the Hallmark and Running Press editions of A Charlie Brown Christmas – the Running Press edition is larger, and has a larger (and in this case different) cover image.
As to whether there’s any change in the art, or if there is better paper as there was for the Christmas book, I really cannot say. I’m cheating here, I’m just going off of the info on the Amazon entry for the book. While the book is now shipping, I try to buy every Peanuts book, but not every edition. (And by the way, don’t bother trying to use Amazon’s Look Inside This Book feature to figure out if it’s using the same art – that feature will pop up a copy of the 2001 paperback edition instead.) When I do get a copy in my hands, I’ll check if there’s any basic change in the art.
Added later: apparently, I was wrong. This is a new adaptation!
