The book is broken up into four parts, from &#8220;First Step: Let&#8217;s learn basic phrases in English to start conversations together with Snoopy and PEANUTS GANG&#8221; to &#8220;Fourth Step: Let&#8217;s learn phrases that would make you sound skilled in English from conversations of PEANUTS.&#8221; (Both the capitalization and the awkward language use is theirs.)<\/p>\n<p>The strips in this book are all from the final quarter of the strip&#8217;s run. They even give you the date in small numbers over the strips, which are always on the left-hand pages. (The numbers that the left-hand page doesn&#8217;t have is the page numbers; the right-hand page will have 048_049 to cover the numbers for both pages.)<\/p>\n<p>This 2006 book is published by Kadokawa, who have published a lot of other Peanuts books. In the back of the book, they list 48 of them, mostly strip collections but also things from cookbook to a dictionary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Continuing our look at Japanese English language education books, we have\u00a0A Peanuts Book Special: Let&#8217;s Speak English With Snoopy!, which is similar to the volume I discussed earlier: an English language strip, with Japanese translation on the outside, followed by discussion of some of the idiomatic or uncommon language used. &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"sfsi_plus_gutenberg_text_before_share":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_show_text_before_share":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_icon_type":"","sfsi_plus_gutenberg_icon_alignemt":"","sfsi_plus_gutenburg_max_per_row":"","episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","filesize_raw":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[13,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3740","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-new-releases","category-reviews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3740","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3740"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3740\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3740"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3740"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3740"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
