Charlie Brown and Snoopy are trapped in a sealed ball of water
Here we have a picture of the upcoming A Charlie Brown Christmas Snow Globe Mini Kit, which includes a small snow blog and a 32 page booklet with color illustrations – which means it’s likely an abridgement of the 48 page adaptation of A Charlie Brown Christmas that Running Press …
The Zipper on My Bible is Stuck at Beaglefest
Both of the books I’m debuting at Beaglefest were, as I noted, samples which I designed when trying to pitch gift books to publishers targeting the Christian specialty market. God’s Children, which I discussed in an earlier message, was to be calm and black-and-white. But I wanted a sample in …
I’m bringing God’s Children to Beaglefest
Remember how I said that I was bringing two new books to Beaglefest? Here’s why… When I got the rights to publish Schulz’s Youth, the collection of cartoon panels that Schulz had done for Church of God (Danville) publications, they included the right to sublicense reprints, translations, abridgments, and so …

This cover is a Peanuts trivia quiz
This is, apparently, the real cover to Peanuts Volume 1, the upcoming collection of the recent Peanuts comic book run… or at least realer than the fill-in image they had (they’ve previously been showing the cover to Peanuts issue zero as the cover… including the $1 price. Sadly, this will …
If I were giving a talk about Peanuts
Now to take advantage of our new Facebook link-up: If you were at a talk I was giving on Peanuts, what would you like to hear me talk about? I’m preparing a short talk for Beaglefest, and there’s a few things I’m definitely going to cover, and a few I’m …
The AAUGH Blog is now on Facebook
For all of you folks who don’t remember to regularly come to blogs, I’ve set up an AAUGH Blog page on Facebook. That way, you’ll see when something new has been posted, will be easily able to share, and will even be able to add comments! So if you’re a …
Schulz writes another posthumous cookbook
About a year-and-a-half ago, I was discussing the rather unlikely book listing for a then-upcoming book on barbecue, supposedly written by the late great Charles M. Schulz himself. Well, it seems as if Sparky is at it again… at least if this link that eagle-eyed AAUGH Blog reader Scott sent …
Snoopy’s Apple Orchard for the cherry blossom crowd
I was having a tough day yesterday, a day of tough decisions and bad news. But in the middle of it, the postman brought an unexpected gift from someone I like, and it really picked up my day. It was a Japanese edition of the 1976 original Peanuts book “I …
