Is it pictures that lie, or words

The words of the Amazon entry say that this upcoming product is named Snoopy’s Organic Dog Biscuit Kit, that it’s written by Snoopy, and that it has cookie cutters in the shape of a doghouse and Peanuts characters.

But hey, maybe what’s happened is that Snoopy and Charlie Brown have written competing books, and Amazon accidentally filed them together. Ya think?

Naaaaa…

(Yes, yes, I know there are frequently little changes from prototype to released product. And I’ve had little errors in my own solicitations as bad as the misspelled “Red Barron”. Just having my fun here.)
