Peanuts is the most popular comic strip in the history of the
world. Its characters - Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Lucy, Linus,
Schroeder, and so many more - have become dearly loved icons for
generation after generation. Now Charles Schulz's classic, Peanuts,
will be reprinted in its entirety for the first time. In these
beautifully produced editions, the strip will be presented in full
in chronological order. They will be the ultimate books for
Peanuts' fans the world over. These first volumes will be of
particular fascination to Peanuts aficionados. Many of the strips
from the series' first two or three years have never been collected
before, in large part because they showed a young Schulz working
out the kinks in his new strip. They include some characterizations
and designs that are quite different from the cast we all know,
including Snoopy's debut as a puppy!

The Peanuts gang offer their wisdom on happiness in this
beautifully produced gift book for all generations. For the
beguiling Peanuts gang, happiness is many things - a warm blanket,
a snowy day, a full supper dish, but most of all happiness is being
one of the gang. The millions of faithful Charles Schulz fans and
those who fondly remember our best-loved beagle and his friends
will cherish this latest title in our Peanuts Guide to Life series.
The world's most beloved beagle shares his philosophy on life in
this beautifully produced gift book for all generations. In his
inimitable style, Snoopy spends his days extolling the virtues of
dancing, hanging out with his best bird friend Woodstock, pursuing
a full supper dish and giving his owner - our favourite lovable
loser, Charlie Brown - the run-around. For the millions of faithful
Charles Schulz fans, and those who fondly remember the joyful dog
with the wild imagination, this is the first in a new series to
cherish that will see the beguiling Peanuts gang share their
sentiments on everything from food to friendship.
As the 1950s close, Peanuts enters its golden age. Linus, who had
just learned to speak in the previous volume, becomes downright
eloquent. Charlie Brown cascades further down the hill to loserdom.
But the rising star is undoubtedly Snoopy. He's at the centre of
the most action-packed episodes. Jonathan Franzen, author of The
Corrections and life-long Peanuts fan, introduces the collection.
While the 50-year run of the Peanuts newspaper strip is obviously
the heart and soul of Charles Schulz's career, he also created a
large amount of Peanuts material that didn't run in the strip. This
bonus 26th volume of The Complete Peanuts collects all of Schulz's
non-strip related Peanuts art: storybooks, comic book stories,
single-panel gags, advertising art, book illustrations, photographs
and even a recipe. With close to 1,000 Peanuts images included, all
created by Schulz himself, no true Peanuts library would be
complete without this final, celebratory volume of The Complete
Peanuts. As a fitting end to the volume - and the series - Schulz's
widow, Jeannie Schulz, provides an emotional afterword to the
volume, as well.

A fifth collection of classic Peanuts newspaper comic strips
features 248 daily strips from 1955-1958 and feature Snoopy,
perhaps Peanuts most popular character, certainly when it comes to
cainines! This book is a facsimile edition of the fifth Peanuts
collection originally published back in 1958 by the Clarke, Irwin
& Company, Ltd of Toronto, Canada. This collection of 248 daily
Peanuts newspaper strips that appeared between 1955 -1958 focuses
on, perhaps the most famous character in the Peanuts universe,
Charlie Brown's Beagle, Snoopy. Whether he's chasing snow flakes,
doing impersonations or just dancing his world famous happy jig,
things are always going to a little sillier when Snoopy's around.
The strip's bitter-sweet humour and child-like innocence helped to
cement the Peanuts comic strip's popularity and secure its
reputation as a true, one-of-a-kind, timeless classic.
As Peanuts concludes its first decade, a new character makes her
appearance: Charlie Brown's little sister Sally. This volume covers
her earliest days, from her proud brother's announcement of her
birth to her first words (and crush on Linus)! Also: the initial
'Great Pumpkin' sequence; Lucy's first appearance as a nickel
psychiatrist; Linus's short-lived and one-sided romance with his
beloved teacher Miss Othmar; and Snoopy's battle with the
doghouse-destroying freeway bypass. All this, plus two of the most
famous Peanuts strips of all time: the 'clouds' Sunday that Schulz
cites as his personal favourite and 'Happiness is a warm puppy'.
The third volume in Canongate's acclaimed series, with a specially
commissioned introduction from The Simpsons' Matt Groening. We
travel into the mid-1950s as Linus learns to talk, Snoopy begins to
explore his eccentricities, Lucy's unrequited crush on Schroeder
takes final shape, and Charlie Brown becomes ... well, even more
Charlie Brown-ish.
Classic sports-themed strips from the most beloved newspaper comic of all time! Baseball, football, ice hockey and more, all from the pen of Charles M. Schulz, in a handsome box set of four hardcover compilations. Charlie Brown on the baseball mound. Lucy pulling away the football. Woodstock driving a Zamboni. Snoopy's side-hustle tennis career. Charles M. Schulz, creator of the most beloved comic strip of all time, saw sports as an essential part of American society, and an endless inspiration for both simple fun and opportunities to reveal and test character... just as they are in real life. The comic strips that resulted are some of the most iconic images in comics history! Gathered here in a gorgeous four-book hardcover box set are the best of Schulz's sporting-themed strips and sequences, compiled from over fifty years of daily Peanuts cartoons. Themed volumes compile the works pastime by pastime – baseball of course, but football, golf, tennis, basketball, ice skating and hockey are all represented among the four volumes. Team celebrations, personal struggles, solidarity in defeat, joy in play, and pure whimsy - the Peanuts cast of children (plus a dog and a bird) experience them across these 800 pages, more than a few of which ask that age old question: will Lucy ever let Charlie kick that football? The perfect gift set for the classic comics fan who loves sports, the sports fan who loves Peanuts... or who doesn't yet know that they do. Just in time for summer and Father's Day - play ball!
Includes all of the comics and bonus materials from Snoopy:
Cowabunga! and Charlie Brown and Friends. Good grief! Charlie
Brown's baseball team has the worst record in history, he's
constantly tormented by a kite-eating tree, and his crush doesn't
even know he exists. Fortunately, he's surrounded by some of the
best friends around. In this special collection of Peanuts comics
for kids, you'll meet outspoken Lucy, philosophical Linus, musical
genius Schroeder, and, of course, Charlie Brown's wave-surfing,
airplane-piloting, Beagle Scout-leading dog, Snoopy, who treats
life as one big adventure. Join in the fun and find out why Peanuts
is the most cherished comic strip of all time. The gang's all here!
