Peanuts books a-shippin’!
Now shipping are Woodstock: A Bird’s Eye View, a strip collection about Snoopy’s little flying friend, and Peanuts Guide To Life, a hardcover strip collection focused on aphorisms and advice. Now, the Woodstock book was actually due to be shipping now, but the release date for the Guide book was …
Kids repeat themselves
Looks like we’re going to get yet another rerelease of Kids Say the Darndest Thing, Art Linkletter’s 1957 book of anecdote’s from his House Party series, with illustrations by Schulz.
British recycling
The folks at Ravette are planning more recycled volumes for later this year. August brings two more of the Snoopy 2-in-1 collections, which each reprint two of the Snoopy Stars/Snoopy Features volumes. However, I don’t yet know which titles these two reprint. They’re also offering up a UK edition of …
Joe Cool covers silence
Here’s a first look at the cover of It Goes Without Saying, October’s collection of silent Peanuts strips. I find it amusing that the main image for a book focusing on the lack of words shows a character with words on his shirt. But then, I think it’s odd that …
Puttering around
It’s Par for the Course, Charlie Brown collects golf-related strips from across the entire run of Peanuts. It’s not a complete collection, nor does it claim to be, but it certainly covers the major golf eras of the strip. In fact, reading this forced me to realize how golf came …
Twelve Percent Complete Peanuts
I just got my hands on a copy of the third volume of The Complete Peanuts, covering the strips from 1955-1956. More than half of this material has never been in any US reprint book, so there are a lot of goodies here even for the intense Peanuts book fan. …
It’s a Golf Book, Charlie Brown

Snoopy and Charlie Brown and Charlie Brown and Snoopy
we now have an upcoming Peanuts board book for kids called Snoopy & Charlie Brown. The existing cover image seems to be a reworking of an earlier board book, Charlie Brown & Snoopy. Is this just a smaller edition of that larger board book? Or is this a completely different board book, despite the titles? After all, Charlie Brown & Snoopy was a totally different book from Charlie Brown and Snoopy.
Outtasight Peanuts book
The latest addition to the AAUGH.com library is another Peanuts book in Braille, the system of raised-dot printing for the blind. This is an edition of Here’s Snoopy, a 1988 storybook for kids. Unlike the American Brotherhood for the Blind editions, this doesn’t include raised pictures… or even unraised pictures. …
More Peanuts kids books
There haven’t been a lot of new Peanuts kids books being announced lately. You may not have realized it, but I sure did. It was certainly a switch from the avalanche we were getting before. Up until yesterday, we only had one kids book upcoming on the Upcoming Peanuts Book …
