Cheap bio for the Nook
At the moment, the Nook ebook edition of Sparky: The Life and Art of Charles Schulz by Beverly Gherman is on sale for a mere buck-ninety-nine. This was an okay one, aimed at the younger set but not one of those cheaply-done part-of-a-set ones done for the youngest readers.
Peanuts mini-kit discounts
I gotta say that the Peanuts “minikits”, little boxed sets with a small toy and often a little minibook, are quite overpriced for what they are at $9.99. But if you want them, That Daily Deal has them today for $3.99 including shipping. If you want Best Friends, Snoopy Flying Ace, or Finger Puppet …
Adding insult to injury to Peanuts books
In the time between when I web-ordered my A Charlie Brown Christmas book fabric panels and when they will presumable arrive, the JoAnn Fabric website first ran out of panels, then lowered the price by another $2.50 per panel. If I was all out of them, I’d only charge a nickel …
A book! An A Charlie Brown Christmas Book!
I admit, I was fretting about it. It was once again looking like it would be a year without a new book edition of A Charlie Brown Christmas. There were none coming through the regular book channels. We have avoided this disaster narrowly at times, with a Hallmark-only book, or something …
Amazon versus Hachette squishes Peanuts
You may have heard about the business battle between online book-and-everything-else store Amazon and publishing giant Hachette, and as with everything in the news, I’m sure you wondered “does this have any impact on Peanuts books?” Well, yes.

The Artist’s Edition price
Amazon is listing the upcoming big Peanuts Artist’s Edition as having a “list price” of $149.99. That may not be accurate. The book was solicited to the comic book stores without a list price; instead, they are being told simply what they would have to pay for it wholesale. It is …
Peanuts Artist’s Edition now orderable
CORRECTED: Previously, this entry said that the art would be reproduced at the original size. That is incorrect; it is being reduced. The error has been removed. That big “Artist’s Edition” that is reproduces Peanuts original art? It’s now available for preorder. I always push preordering, and on this, I’m …

AAUGH Blog reader Jason points out that the iTunes bookstore currently has a book adaptation of A Charlie Brown Christmas for free!

The Complete Peanuts volumes are showing up as part of Amazon MatchBook program. What that means is that if you buy (or at any time have bought), say, The Complete Peanuts volume 1 from Amazon, they will now sell you a digital copy (for your Kindle device or Kindle reader …
Good discount on It’s Only a Game
For some reason, Amazon has at the moment I’m posting this over a 30% discount on the new color edition of It’s Only a Game that I released last week. I do not promise that that rate will be there by the time you click over, but it’s worth trying. …
