Comes with more bamboo sticks than any other Peanuts product I can think of!
This set of things-to-hold-up-to-yourself-while-getting-your-picture-taken, Peanuts Photo Props, is listed as a hardcover book.

Nothing much, what’s Snoo with you?
(My apologies to anyone who saw an incomplete version of this post that was accidentally published.) Yes, I went to Costco today. No, it wasn’t to look to see if the new hardcover collection of all the 1960s daily strips was in yet. Well, not entirely. But it wasn’t. In yet, …
Superimposed Snoopys
Sometimes looking at a bunch of Peanuts book covers in a row will raise questions… and answers. Question: Why does Snoopy look like he’s holding something in his right paw on this cover for a book coming out next March? Answer: See this book, coming out in January! And lest …
