December 23: A Very Peanuts Christmas

Some books are great, but some books are more than a book, and such is the case with A Very Peanuts Christmas – it’s a book, but it’s also a pillow! More of a decorative throw item than something you’re going to use to sleep on, but it is nice and fluffy and huggable.

And on the inside? It’s a strip collection. Not a lot of pages (a mere ten), but nice big fabric ones that you lay on the floor and read with your kids. A fine, fun item.

I've certainly bought normal books with less strip content in them.
