The Peanuts strip continues its slow evolution with this volume, 1957-1958. Appropriately (as he's on the cover) Snoopy really comes into his own in these years. By the end of the book, he's sleeping on the roof of his doghouse! The first two volumes of this series were slower reads, as the strip hadn't quite hit its stride. Now? All bets are off.
