Pretty Japanese Peanuts book

New releases

I hadn’t checked out the Japanese books in a while, and I’ll probably be doing a post soon on the cool covers I’ve found since my last stab at that, but… look at these! This is Snoopy Travel The World, a “healing scratch art” book, and I think what it is is that you see a white-on-black printed page, and you scratch away at the white to reveal the color underneath, and the pages that are shown as full of color without lines are the full page that is under the lined layer, and you’re really not supposed to see that all, but all of it is so lovely! Anyway, if these sample pages catch your eye (click to enlarge), head on over to the book’s listing at the Japanese Amazon site, click on the cover, and look through the rest of ’em!

It briefly tells you that Charlie …
