The book won&#8217;t ship until July,<br \/>\nbut if you order it now you won&#8217;t have to worry about<br \/>\nit later (and you won&#8217;t be billed until the book<br \/>\nships.)<\/p>\n<p>\nhttp:\/\/AAUGH.com\/go.htm?0345452836<br \/>\n<br \/>\n==============================================================<br \/>\n<br \/>\nMORE PEANUTS GHOST BOOKS, ALAS<\/p>\n<p>From time to time, books are announced in some form but<br \/>\nnever released, and their listings stay in the catalogs<br \/>\nof online bookstores. This has happened previously with<br \/>\nsuch Peanuts books as PEPPERMINT PATTY AND MARCIE and<br \/>\nCAPS DON&#8217;T WIN BALL GAMES, MARCIE, both of which were<br \/>\nintended for a no-longer existent line of books, but<br \/>\nthey keep appearing in online listings with updated<br \/>\nrelease dates. Unfortunately, two more announced books<br \/>\nare now showing signs of being &#8220;ghost books&#8221;: MY SWEET<br \/>\nBABBOO: PEANUTS ON LOVE and OH FRIENDS OF FRIENDS: PEANUTS<br \/>\nON FRIENDSHIP, a pair of mini gift books. I really<br \/>\nthought that we&#8217;d see these books, since we saw<br \/>\nthe covers for them, but their release date has passed,<br \/>\nchanged, and passed again without any sign of them<br \/>\nexisting. These are phantoms in the system.<\/p>\n<p>If you have an open order that includes either of these<br \/>\nbooks, you should cancel those books so that the rest<br \/>\nof the order isn&#8217;t being held, waiting for these to<br \/>\narrive.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n==============================================================<br \/>\n<br \/>\nA PLACE FOR YOUR PEANUTS TOYS<\/p>\n<p>The latest piece of Peanuts furniture for your kid&#8217;s<br \/>\nroom: A Baby Snoopy toy box!

I&#8217;ve<br \/>\ntalked about this book (and Braille editions of other books<br \/>\nin the series) several time in the newsletter, but I&#8217;m not<br \/>\nsure that my descriptions do it justice.
