Features: "The characters in 'Peanuts' convey the idea that through sudden violence, everything in the world can be changed, at least improved. Both gentleness and intensity can help solve problems. However, Charlie Brown reminds everyone how fragile and vulnerable humans are, something no cartoon character has ever done." – TIME website "Peanuts is simple and easy to understand, but for certain readers, it's like a mystery. Anyway, I'd like to raise a toast to this genius who built a billion-dollar empire with a bottle of ink." – Hank Ketcham
Snoopy refuses to do mundane tasks like chasing and carrying a stick. When his owner comes home from school, he also doesn’t take seriously the duties of a loyal dog—welcoming his master home. – Charles Schulz
An unexpected incident occurs: Charlie Brown takes Snoopy to the mall to wait for a girl he can’t remember. But at the mall entrance, the girl shouts his name and runs over, hugging Snoopy tightly! Humiliated, Charlie Brown reminds himself that he is the real Charlie Brown, but the girl treats him like a madman. He can only stand outside the restaurant, staring blankly through the glass window as Snoopy and her enjoy their ice cream.
Snoopy becomes increasingly self-important and stands out even more. Faced with Sally’s scolding, he retorts, "It’s impolite to stare at people like that!" At the movie theater entrance, he demands an adult ticket. He even tells his owner in the voice of the famous German philosopher Nietzsche, "We need a new God!" But his arrogance doesn’t last long.
Charlie Brown meets a beautiful girl named Emily and quickly falls in love. Starving, Snoopy is reduced to begging for cookies again. Fortunately, his chance to vent comes when Charlie Brown is too scared to kick the ball Emily asks him to kick. Snoopy seizes the moment and delivers a hard kick to his owner’s buttocks!
