Don’t Give Up addendum
Just a quick note of something that I forgot to put at the end of the review of Don’t Give Up, Charlie Brown!, and that’s that this book should not be confused with the Fawcett Crest or Coronet books of the title Don’t Give Up, Charlie Brown. Those are reprints …
Review: Don’t Give Up, Charlie Brown
Don’t Give Up, Charlie Brown is a gift book of encouraging quotes from famous folks and Peanuts characters. Slickly produced in color and illustrated with dialogueless Peanuts images, this isn’t a book that makes you want to sit down and read it (much less shelling out the $12.99 list price …

Peanuts books on their way (some, rather sooner than others)
Don’t Give Up, Charlie Brown!, the full color gift book, is now shipping. And you can now preorder March’s The Dirt on Pig Pen, as well as the two Complete Peanuts volumes for 2008: the 1967-1968 volume, and 1969-1970. I don’t recommend placing those preorders now – you’ll pay full …
No Longer Remembering Sparky
The mailma’am just delivered my copies of the book of reminiscences about Charles Schulz that I discussed earlier. I was surprised to find that the book didn’t bear the title which I’d been told it would have. While the text of the book refers to itelf by the old tile …

Pig Pen Product
Coming in May of next year is The Dirt on Pig Pen, a 96 page paperback strip collection. “But Nat!” you cry. “How can I plan now to buy next year’s books? I don’t have a 2007 calendar to track such things on!” Lucky for you, you can now order …
Now shipping: and though I should have noted it earlier, the DVD boxed set of This is America, Charlie Brown is now available for immediate shipment. This has the complete eight-episode miniseries, more than three hours of material on two disks at a good price.
Charlie Brown Thanksgiving cover
We’ve got an early look at the cover for the new mini book edition of A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, which supposely won’t be out until the Fall of 2007. At this point, I’m split between believing that and suspecting that someone just misentered a date, and the book is due …
