The Complete Peanuts 1955-1956 v 3
Author(s): Charles M. Schulz
The third volume in Canongate's acclaimed series arrives with a specially commissioned introduction from "The Simpsons'" Matt Groening. This beautiful new edition takes us 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.
