5 out of 5 starsI am so happy I bought this book. I have loved Peanuts for many years and admired Charles Schulz for what I have known about him up til now. But to now have a window into his life and how it correlates to the comic strip, to know how personal it is, to see it develop in front of my eyes is a privilege. I will treasure this book for a very long time!

My Newfound Platform
I retired in 2021 after teaching 32 years K-12 art and business. As I listen to songs by Bob James, Earl Klugh, Kirk Waylum, and others I’ve been inspired to think more about me and get started on the next creative phase in my life. I sold vintage collectibles and antiques on Etsy for several years and out of my brick-and-mortar historical building, the Old Church Store, for over 20 years. So here I am writing about me and developing a newfound platform. I plan to sell digital prints of my original watercolor paintings and still life compositions that I will set up with my vintage collectibles and antiques. In the meantime I hope you find interest in my vintage prints and books soon to be republished.
