Now, my hopes weren&#8217;t really high that I&#8217;d score an actual new edition of <em>A Charlie Brown Christmas<\/em>; after all, I already have three different editions of their <em>A Charlie Brown Christmas<\/em> minibook &#8211; one hardcover with a dangly tree ornament bookmark, one hardcover without a dangly tree, and a softcover edition which came as part o the <em>A Charlie Brown Christmas: A Book-and-Tree Kit<\/em> box. Surely the book in this new boxed set would be identical to that prior softcover.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">But no! Oh, its still the same adaptation, but it has bigger dimensions! It&#8217;s about a quarter inch wider and an eight of an inch taller. The art isn&#8217;t enlarged, but it extends further. A different image is chosen for the back cover. So it is a different edition! And for those of you who know this ol&#8217; AAUGH Blogger, you know that while the comforts of home, family, and pizza bring much happiness, it is only in new book editions of <em>A Charlie Brown Christmas<\/em> that joy is truly felt.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 350px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/to.htm?0762439580\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" \" title=\"The two paperback minibooks of A Charlie Brown Christmas, side by side\" src=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/images\/cbc\/2010compare.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"207\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">viva la difference<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This new edition has, of course, been added to<a href=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/guide\/cbc.html\"> The AAUGH.com Evergreen, Evergrowing Guide to <em>A Charlie Brown Christmas<\/em> Books<\/a> &#8211; if you&#8217;ve never checked this feature out, do!
