Peanuts movie books forever!

We’ve already seen a number of books adapting The Peanuts Movie that will be coming out this year around the time the film arrives. It turns out, that’s not the end of it! Slated for May of next year is Peanuts: The Movie Book, available in editions with and without a CD. This is part of that Popcorn Readers line of books aimed at folks just learning English, like the one that Snoopy and Friends book I discussed previously. This book is currently listed at Amazon, but with the previous Popcorn Readers, Amazon US never actually sold them; I had to order them from a UK source. Doing a little searching, it looks like the publisher has previously released late movie adaptations, shipping books of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 1 & 2 just a few months ago. Maybe this is just a one-time thing, or maybe we”ll have new book adaptations of The Peanuts Movie several times every year they way we get new book adaptations of A Charlie Brown Christmas or investigations of the Benghazi attack.
