Upcoming releases

While they’ve been turning a number of the many Peanuts storybooks into board books, I was not expecting this one. Yes, coming in August is a board book version of It’s Hockey Time, Franklin!, one of the few storybooks to focus on the young guy stuck with sitting adjacent to Peppermint Patty in class. No cover is available yet, and while I presume it will be based on the paperback edition‘s book cover seen here, that doesn’t always prove to be the case.

I’d ask when we get a board book with Dolores in the lead, but i suspect that will have to wait until she falls into the public domain in 2069… and likely not even then.
