So here on the day before Christmas, and while I have no more shopping yet to get done, I find myself buying gifts for me. That’s because Amazon is having a great day-before-Christmas sale, with some very desirable MP3 albums for $1.99 or less. (Not that it has to be …

The title of Christmas is Together-Time may be a mite awkward, but what it is isn’t awkward at all. What it is is pure, book-original Schulz, with his reflections on Christmas and what it is. And lest you think that a Christmas giftbook is apt to be pure saccharine, we …

Some books are great, but some books are more than a book, and such is the case with A Very Peanuts Christmas – it’s a book, but it’s also a pillow! More of a decorative throw item than something you’re going to use to sleep on, but it is nice …

I just got outbid on this: Look at that! It’s a book and record of The Story of Snoopy and the Red Baron… but apparently with a license just for the song, it’s not a Peanuts item, so no dog in the dogfight… even though Snoopy is specifically described in …

You’ve got today and part of tomorrow to order gifts and have them delivered before Christmas using two-day shipping. I just ordered for my three year old son Don’t Let The Pigeon Finish This Activity Book, a cheap little set of fire vehicles, and an electronic toy that teaches writing …

The Peanuts Christmas Ornament Book gets my affection because it’s a book. And it’s a good thing it says that it’s a book in the title, because otherwise I might never have known. Normally, I would not consider a folded cardboard sheet with pop-out shapes to be a book. In …

You thought I was kidding about that earlier cover when I said that the presents were about to hit the smiling, oblivious youth in their noggins. But on this book you see the sort of thing that happens. And its title, Bah, Humbug!, reflects that other side of Christmas, one …
