The Peanuts Story Box

The fine folks at Costco get their own custom Peanuts book product with marked frequency, and I seem to have just found myself another one. The Peanuts Story Box is a boxed set of reduced-sized (I’d eyeball it at about half the original dimensions) versions of eight Peanuts storybooks, specifically Lose the Blanket, Linus; Nice to Meet You, Franklin!, Snoopy and Woodstock’s Great Adventure, You’re a Big Brother, Charlie Brown!, Go Fly a Kite, Charlie Brown!, Kick the Football, Charlie Brown!, Shoot for the Moon, Snoopy!, and Snoopy Takes Off!. I’m not finding any mention of this set on the web (not even on Costco’s website), so I reckon this is a freshly-released exclusive. The local store had it priced at $16.99, or a mite over $2 per book. I did not purchase one; I try to get all the books, but don’t worry about all the editions or all the boxes.
