The Schulz bowling book is available

New releases

A while back I let you know that I was putting together a small book of Schulz cartoons about bowling… and now it’s available! It’s a thin little thing, 52 pages, a few dozen cartoons, and it’s nothing that the Schulz completist needs (all of the cartoons are already in It’s Only A Game or Schulz’s Youth), but it can make a nice gift for any bowler who likes Schulz’s work.

Spares! Go order it!

(And don’t wait too long… this one will only be available for a limited time. Barring an unforeseen change, I’ll have to take it off sale sometime this year.)

Charlie Brown answers …

“Books”

My grocery shopping today landed me two new Peanuts “books”. The more bookish of the two is the latest edition of The Great Big Book of Peanuts Word Seeks, volume 5 to be precise, which as I’ve mentioned before I’ll allow to qualify as a book… particularly because it not …
