Back in 1964, Charles Schulz illustrated \u00a0a book of kids&#8217; letters to the then-new president, Lyndon Johnson. The letters had been selected from the White House pile by Bill Adler, who had done a previous similar book of letters to Kennedy as well as compiling the best-selling\u00a0<em>The Kennedy Wit<\/em>. But <strong>Dear President Johnson<\/strong> has\u00a0been out of print for many administrations now, and plenty of Schulz fans have never seen a copy.<\/p>\n<p>So I fixed it.<\/p>\n<p>I cut deals with both the Schulz people and the Adler people, got the needed rights. An in order for this to be good business, I had to find markets for it &#8212; this book is going to be available both at the Schulz Museum gift shop (just in time for the new presidential-themed exhibit &#8220;Mr. Schulz Goes to Washington,&#8221; which opens this weekend! Serendipity!) and soon at the gift shop at the LBJ Presidential Library.<\/p>\n<p>And, of course, for those of you who don&#8217;t happen to live by one of the museums, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/ASIN\/1936404567\/ref=nosim\/aaugh-20\/\">it&#8217;s available at Amazon<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>About 100 pages, black and white with a color cover, 6&#8243; square paperback\u00a0with a list price of\u00a0$9.99.<\/p>\n<p>Ta-da!<a href=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-31.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4260 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-31.jpg\" alt=\"President-Johnson-spreads-31\" width=\"546\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-31.jpg 546w, https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-31-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 546px) 100vw, 546px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-14.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-4258\" src=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-14-300x272.jpg\" alt=\"President-Johnson-spreads-14\" width=\"300\" height=\"272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-14-300x272.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-14.jpg 382w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-48.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4261 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-48.jpg\" alt=\"President-Johnson-spreads-48\" width=\"601\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-48.jpg 601w, https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-48-300x126.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-49.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4262 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-49-300x269.jpg\" alt=\"President-Johnson-spreads-49\" width=\"300\" height=\"269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-49-300x269.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-49.jpg 431w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-16.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-4259 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-16.jpg\" alt=\"President-Johnson-spreads-16\" width=\"589\" height=\"271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-16.jpg 589w, https:\/\/aaugh.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/President-Johnson-spreads-16-300x138.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 589px) 100vw, 589px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is the sort of thing where I&#8217;ve had news I wanted to share, but couldn&#8217;t (or at least shouldn&#8217;t) until everything was ready &#8211; but now it is!
