Review: Peanuts minus Schulz
As part of the effort to clean out the living room, I’ve decided to give up on trying to read all of Peanuts minus Schulz and just give the general impression. This is supposed to be An Important Reflection On Art, but their claims about that seem more like weak cover …
A portrait of A Charlie Brown Christmas. Also, a landscape.
Looks like we’ll be getting a couple more editions of book adaptations of A Charlie Brown Christmas this year. One is a board book version of the 2015 Tina Gallo and Scott Jeralds adaptation that’s already been reworked before, and the other… is also a board book version of that …

Ah, I’m behind in reviewing some things, but I need to clean up my living room of book clutter in preparation for an upcoming oarty… and if I want to remove a Peanuts books from the room and put it up in the AAUGH,com Reference Library, I have to review …
Another discount book
Hot on the heels of finding a discount printing of a Peanuts strip collection at Five Below, I discover another volume there. A-Maze-ing Peanuts was among their five-dollar books, and it’s original version (which has a different cover) is a $12.99 list price book. I’ve no idea if this is …

This one left me bobbling my head.
The bobblehead people are after me to promote again… and I’ve told them I’ll only show their product when I have something relevant to say about it. So they sent me their latest request, and I have something to say about it. AAUGH! As part of their line celebrating Peanuts …
Every Sunday comes around again
Shipping this September (or so they say) is the first volume of the paperback rerelease of Peanuts Every Sunday, the series which reprints the Sunday strips for the entire run of the strip, in color. The solicitation doesn’t appear to have the dimensions on it, so I don’t know if …
