Charles M. Schulz’s Peanuts continue with brand new adventures and classic tales! Featuring a best of collection Snoopy’s comic book adventures.

This is what happens when you use a previous release as a template. Or maybe Snoopy is sneaking into this book the way he snuck into that second sentence! (Wait, is that even a sentence?? It grammar not sense make!)
