Reviewlet: Peanuts birthday book
- By : Nat
- Category : New releases, Reviews
Sometimes, it seems a waste to write a whole new review. So as my review for the pretty gift book Good Grief, It’s Your Birthday, just reread my earlier review of Don’t Give Up, Charlie Brown. It’s largely the same thing – Peanuts art and thematic quotes, although this time the theme is birthdays. The biggest difference is that they actually include some Peanuts strips with the word balloons intact this time, although the topic of the strip is sometimes only tangentially related to birthdays. It even has some of the same flaws of citing someone quoting an earlier quote as the source of the quote… and thus actor Christian Slater is credited with a saying more rightly attributed to Mullah Nasrudin in the 13th century. (Yeah, I always get those two confused, too.)
