Nat interviews – and welcome Mr. Media fans

For those of you coming here from hearing about The AAUGH Blog on the Mr. Media podcast – welcome, and I hope you enjoy! There’s ordering information on The Peanuts Collection at the bottom of the page, and please take the time to browse through the blog entries and see my ruminations on Peanuts books past and present. I also hope you’ll browse the AAUGH.com site – behind our catalog of Peanuts books available for sale hides a collector’s guide to Peanuts books, my ever-growing obsessive guide to book adaptations of A Charlie Brown Christmas, and more.

For those of you who don’t know about the Mr. Media interview, click here to open it in your default media player, or here to play it through your web browser.

There’s also a separate interview about The Peanuts Collection up at Robot 6 – this one is text, no speakers needed! And for those who want images – the publisher of the book has set up a slideshow of sample images from the book.

The book is slated to hit bookstores on October 25th. For those who like to order from your favorite online sites, here are the links to do so now:
