Over a month after I got a shipment of a handful of Peanuts books from Japan, I am finally getting around to chronicling the last of these. This was one which came as a surprise to me, because I had been under the assumption that the translation of Charles M. Schulz: …

Yes, I know I’ve not yet finished chronicling the books I got in that shipment from Japan, but Dr. Mrs. The AAUGH Blog wanted a scan of the new item the AAUGH Blog Reference Library received yesterday, and as long as I was at it, I reckoned I might take …

The next book in my Amazon Japan shipment falls into the adorable category of “Peanuts used to explain American culture”. English Phrases to Comfort Your Heart with Snoopy by Nobu Yamada falls into that category. It also falls into the category of “books which are meant to be destroyed”, as each …

Every once in a while, a Peanuts book slips by me. That’s particularly true of a book like Peanuts Adventures, a book that didn’t get distributed through the standard book distribution means. This book was designed for the discount racks. When you go to a bookstore like Barnes & Noble …

I just paid full cover price for copies of two books that I myself had written, just trying to find out whether Hallmark had, as they sometimes do, gotten their own printings of the books with a Hallmark gold crown logo on them. And it would’ve been worth it had …

I just received my latest eBay order. It’s one of the programs for the AT&T golf pro-ams (previously the Crosby Pro-Am), with a Snoopy cover. And it’s autographed! And if you think I’m bouncing around happily because I have a Schulz autograph — don’t be silly! There are so many …

Given that it seems to be book-banning season again, I thought I’d double-check that I covered when the Texas prison system had banned a Peanuts book I wrote. I had, and I even covered how they’d banned A Charlie Brown Christmas. But I started to wonder whether there were Peanuts …

In response to my earlier post about the two “It’s Only a Game” pamphlets, Schulz Museum curator Benjamin Clark dropped me a line. Did he have information about the where, the when, the how, and the why these were published? No, but he did have one devastating fact to give …
