I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my unbiased opinion.
This is volume 11 of Charles Schulz's Peanuts comics, featuring Charlie Brown, Snoopy, et al. The end of the book talks a little about the dancing featured throughout the years of Peanuts cartoons. Some of these comics were ones I don't remember seeing before, such as the ones where the cat slashes shapes into Snoopy's doghouse. Those appear to have been common back in 1977-78! I love the Peanuts cartoons, and hopefully this book will make them more known to younger generations.

This was pure joy!
I love the snarky-ness of these kids nad how sometimes they just feel like adults!
I still can't pick a favorite, but I sure relate to Snoopy a lot.

I am a huge Snoopy fan, and this both warmed my heart and made me smile. There something comforting about these comics. It’s just cozy, and you feel like you could return to them over and over again. This is as good as all the other Snoopy I’ve read over the years. They could do these until I’m 80 and it would be just fine with me. The world is so simple, yet at the same time has the ability to hit you at times with something quietly profound. I’d recommend this to anyone, of any age.

'Snoopy: Boogie Down!' by Charles M. Schulz is the 11th collection by Andrews McMeel Publishing. These are great collections and feature color strips throughout.
This time around Snoopy deals with mealtime woes. Sally goes to camp and meets a new kid (and forgets to have a bad time at camp along the way). The new kid moves in to the neighborhood and manages to get Linus' prized blanket, and Linus, Snoopy and Woodstock have to perform a daring rescue.
There are also tennis jokes, baseball jokes, and more. I love that these original black and white strips are now in color. The color process honors the originals. There are daily strips as well as Sundays. Get a copy of this for a kid in your life. These are still classic.

You can't go wrong with the Peanuts.
It was and is always so much fun to read the Peanuts comic strip. Charles M. Schultz was a genius in how he made his strip so appealing to kids and adults alike. Peanuts is timeless and is always guaranteed to elicit a smile and/or laugh. As a bonus, it may impart a pearl of wisdom or a different perspective. I highly recommend this collection!
My favorite strips were and continue to be the ones about Snoopy so when I saw that this book’s title featured that cute little beagle, I knew I had to read it! There are some great strips featuring Snoopy and his feud with the stupid cat, Snoopy pretending to be an owl, Snoopy with his dinner bowl, Snoopy writing a book (on a typewriter of all things! Most of these strips are not at all dated but that one was. Today I guess Snoopy would be writing a book on an ipad!)
It is always a treat to see Peanuts in color! The drawings are still adorable and delightful! Nothing beats a smiling, laughing or dancing Snoopy! There are some classic ones, like Charlie Brown asks Snoopy why he doesn’t dance anymore for his dinner. And, Lucy saying its windy, raining and cold — it’s a good day to be crabby. Of course, a Peanuts collection would not be complete without Charlie Brown trying to kick the football that’s held by Lucy or Charlie Brown on the mound pitching. There are plenty of these are included in this collection.
There is a great 4-5 pages that detail the history of Snoopy’s dancing and how it changed throughout the years, even if they were in black and white. There is even one very early one in which Snoopy looked different and its always interesting to see the visual of how a character started out.
It never ceases to amaze me how simple some Peanuts strips are and yet hey are so funny. I enjoyed the ones about Sally telling Charlie Brown about different English symbols liken ampersand and a musical clef, which if you didn’t know they hate each other! She explains that brackets always come in pairs so if you see only one by itself, you will know it’s up to no good!
I always appreciated how some Peanuts strips continue with the same situation, just with a different spin. For example, there are quite a few featuring Peppermint Patty dealing with her problem of falling asleep in class. Her friend Marcie gives her advice and different ideas of what is causing the problem. Some of them are just so hilarious.

Mi padre leía pocos tebeos, pero de los peanuts tenía por lo menos quince libros en sus estanterías. En el proceso natural de absorción y descarte de las estanterías de mi padre descubrí a Charlie Brown, el antihéroe, y a Snoopy y a Woodstock, héroes peculiares, y a Linus y su manta, y a Schroeder y su piano, y a Lucy, enamorada de Schroeder, y a Patty y a Sally, y a todos los demás. De trazo simple, con líneas argumentales que oscilaban entre una y doscientas tiras, Charles Schulz creó durante 50 años (solo Ibáñez ha sido más prolífico durante más tiempo) un pequeño universo al que he vuelto alguna vez, para comprobar con gusto que, si bien ya no me llama como antes, no ha envejecido mal.
Hay tantas tiras (más de 18.000 en 50 años, se dice pronto) que, como dicen de los Simpson, toda cosa que pase ha salido ya probablemente en una tira de Charlie Brown. Las leí sobre todo entre mis 10 y mis 15 años, pero cuando me he cruzado con alguna en años posteriores ha seguido aguantando el tipo y, por supuesto, se aprecian má mensajes destinados al adulto. La maravilla de las cosas bien hechas, que apelan a todos los públicos. Altamente recomendable.
