Product Description
Essentially, this is the best of the best 50 years of Peanuts, the comic strip by the late Charles Schulz featuring Charlie Brown, Lucy, Linus, Snoopy, and the rest of the beguiling little gang. Peanuts debuted in 1950 and became a global phenomenon, with book collections selling more than 300 million copies in 26 languages and television specials rerun year after year. To create this all-new Peanuts Guide to Life we've combed through decades of comic strips to find those single panels which contain such pithy observations as "Babysitters are like used cars. You never know what you're going to get," and bits of wisdom like "Never lick ice cream off a hot sidewalk." Each droll, stand-alone "speech bubble" or punchline appears with cartoon art. The panels are organized into short chapters, such as "Love" and "Life's Little Quirks." For the millions of faithful Peanuts fans, this is a collection of "greatest hits" to cherish and enjoy again and again.

 Brief but powerful...kinda February 26, 2008
I love Peanuts. This is a brief collection of one-frame wisdoms. Thought-provoking. Don't have too high expectations, but it is still enjoyable.
Good, but a little pricey December 29, 2007

Title pretty much says it. I thought it was a little pricey for what we got (would have preferred paperback for lower price), but I did enjoy reading it. I recommend it. ach set of two facing pages has a quote and a one-scene cartoon. Forward is by Bill Cosby. Groupings of quotes are Life Philosophy, Confidence, Self Care, Self Reliance, People Shills, Prudence, Wisdom, Effort, Love and Little Quirks.

small book, can finish reading it in 5 minutes, even though it is over 100+ pages.
Since I paid 1 cent for the book, I can't complain.
S/H was a fixed $3.99
A Book of Quotes August 3, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is not a book of Strips. It is really a book of quotes sorted by subject matter... this could almost be made into Hallmark cards
For example the subject is Effort and the quote is Some of my best school papers have been written before breakfast.......Sally Brown
and on the opposing page is her examining her written work
The book is 128 pages
Probably one thing I was able to enjoy a little more in this book is Charles Schulz's artwork Like a close-up of Charlie Brown looking into an empty mailbox
And Charlie Brown laying flat on his back with circles around his head
Just little things like that.....
I did enjoy this book I gave it three stars cause I was disappointed it wasn't a book of strips, I like the new way they have of sorting the strips for us Baseball, other sports, School and of course Love and I thought this was another one.....
Maybe it didn't get four stars cause it was done too soon One quote a page You feel like a speed reader.
