Happiness is a Warm Nook

They’ve started a new push putting Peanuts books on the Nook, the Barnes & Noble ebook device. Went to check it out myself, and got the bad news: they’re only for the color Nook (and the iPad Nook software), because the books have interactive elements that wouldn’t work on the other hardware. Now available are Happiness is a Warm Puppy and the storybook adaptation of the latest animated special, Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown (with narration by Ari Meyers, a pleasant name for those of us who enjoyed Kate & Allie).

Of course, if you want some Schulz for your B&W Nook – or any Nook for that matter – you can get my collection Schulz’s Youth.)

Schulz is from Tidal Wave, …
