Charles M. Schulz's Peanuts continue with brand new adventures and classic tales!
Follow Snoopy, the World Famous Sergeant-Major of the Foreign Legion, on the mission of a lifetime to save his dear brother Spike, as he encounters adventure at every corner of the neighborhood--from Lucy's Psychiatric Booth to Schroeder's piano. This and many more wonderful tales unfold with the entire gang in this all-new Peanuts collection from the celebrated world of Charles M. Schulz!
You can't go wrong with some classic Peanuts cartoons, am I right? Peanuts Vol. 9 created by Charles Schulz (and written by Jason Cooper with illustrations by Vicki Scott and Paige Braddock) is a collection of our favorite kids and their antics. (Do you recall the sound of the incomprehensible droning of the adults in the cartoon?) This (being volume 9) is obviously one of a series of collections like this that put together some of the best of the best of the Peanuts gang. From what I can tell they don't have specific themes and it doesn't matter which order you decide to read them. This was such a trip down memory lane for me and it made me vividly recall Sunday mornings and reading the newspaper cartoons in color. If you've never experienced the hopelessness of Charlie Brown, the ingenuity of Snoopy, or the wisecracking Lucy you owe it to yourself to settle down for some lighthearted hilarity. Pick up something sweet and fun to settle down with for the weekend! 10/10
PS When did Marcie fall in love with Charlie Brown?! I knew about Peppermint Patty but Marcie threw me for a complete loop!
PPS Do kids know about the Legionnaires? Do you? Well, I suggest you do a little homework because there's a whole set of jokes about them in this volume and you'll surely be lost if you don't.
I'm so glad I found these comics because they're so fun to read! Loved the story about Snoopy going to rescue Spike and the one where Schroeder's piano has a major mishap! Loved them all and it's hard to pick a favorite, but I'm glad Peppermint Patty and Marcie are featured.
