Snoopy Dog Biscuits – the book!

Coming this December (and preorderable now), it’s Snoopy Dog Biscuits, a book of recipes. This hardcover, written by former USA Today food editor (which sounds like a great job description there – I mean, editing food! “Pump up the corn. Stet the lime beans. The paprika lacks motivation – work on it!”) comes with cookie cutters.

And as long as I’m talking about upcoming Peanuts books, I should note that the Snoopy Flying Ace kit, originally announced for last month, remains upcoming; the official schedule now says this month. I can’t help but suspect that the Flying Ace got shot down and is now working his way towards the bookstores, hiding in the farmhouses of innocent French girls as he does.

As always, you can find upcoming Peanuts books listed here.
