te Peanuts, new in paperback, Schulz's cartooning has never been more expressive, and the strip continues to surprise and delight. Welcome Andy to the cast of characters, as all three dog brothers reunite to cheer on Snoopy, who bounces back from a bout of pneumonia. In other news, Charlie Brown is a baseball hero after hitting a game-winning home run. Linus lobbies the White House to nominate Snoopy for an open Supreme Court seat (alas, he doesn't make the cut). And Woodstock discovers his long-lost grandfather's diary, recounting the indignities of life trapped in a (gasp!) birdcage.

The Complete Peanuts is the publishing project that launched a renaissance in comic strip publishing and the only place Charles M. Schulz's classic has ever been collected in its entirety. Featuring impeccable production values, each volume of this series features two successive years of newspaper strips (dailies and Sundays), plus bonus material such as celebrity introductions, interviews, and a brief biography of Schulz himself.
