Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Forget your Snoopy-doll, this is dark humor...and yet so lighthearted
By the early 1960's, Charles Schulz truly reached his peak as a cartoonist, both in terms of verbal and visual creativity. All of the characters have fully matured into what we remember them for: Charlie Brown is as depressed as ever, having fallen in love with the mysterious red-haired girl and losing one baseball game after another; Schroeder hates himself for forgetting Beethoven's birthday; Linus, who for a brief time here appears in glasses, drags his blanket around everywhere, while his sister ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Handing down to a new generation
I used to read all these strips when they were in paperback form. I remember being around 12 or 13 and pouring over them again and again, with the added luxury of checking out the action every day in the daily paper. It's very gratifying, now that my six-year old daughter is reading, to share these volumes with her and watch her lose herself among the pages, and then ask to be quizzed on the many special characteristics of the kids in Charlie Brown's neighborhood. The printing quality is extremely high, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Who doesn't love Snoopy and Charlie Brown?
If you already bought the previous releases of this collection, you know exactly what you'll find inside: intelligence, emotion and depth of the human relations.

Even if you prefer the "modern version" of the strips (with Spike, Woodstock, the Red Baron, school scenes and ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A definite must for the refined collector
I bought all the items in the series and found them simply irresistible.
The strips are the integral version by the great master himself, Charles M. Schulz, and the edition is very, very good, with a robust hardcover and classy paper.

A special note for Italian speaking people: these are the "integral" strips, not the censored ones published for many years in Italy, where the religious quotations and remarks were systematically erased.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - How consistant can you get?
This volume of The Complete Peanuts cover the years 1961 and 1962 in their entireties. The most noteworthy event of this book is the introduction of Frieda, the girl with the "naturally curly hair". Soon after her debut, the running gag where Frieda tries to get Snoopy to chase rabbits is used for the first time. Also introduced at this time was Frieda's cat Faron, who only made a few appearances before disappearing. Many of the jokes from this volume were later used in Peanuts television specials, most ...
