Camarillo author Nat Gertler follows the evolution of Snoopy of Peanuts fame in his latest book. For anyone who wanted a quick peek at the AAUGH.com reference library, here’s a corner of it, as your humblish author gets front page (of section D) treatment in the Ventura County Star. The …

I was searching the web for reviews of my book The Snoopy Treasures to add to my list of reviews when I stumbled across one from La Casa de El which gave me a key piece of information that I did not already have: there’s a Spanish edition of the book! Los Tesoros de …

Last night’s 50th anniversary special for A Charlie Brown Christmas turned out to really be a celebration of 50 years of Peanuts RV animation, which is not a complaint. And it wasn’t an academic exercise… which I would’ve enjoyed, but wouldn’t be what the mass audience was searching for. The music …
