Features: I even love without thinking! — Linus In my 13th year, someone gave us a small black and white dog, which was the precursor to Snoopy. — Charles M. Schulz "Aside from a handful of cartoonists, almost no one has truly explored the daily life of the family and genuine emotions. Peanuts is a landscape painting of the human heart." — Rue Beger (Director of the Schulz Museum) "I am very grateful to him because he helped me relieve a lot of stress. There has never been anyone like him, with so many children surrounding me, calling his name, waking me up when I'm napping, and asking if I can stand up on my own." Special parties are held without inviting Charlie Brown, wishing him a holiday without receiving any greeting cards, and even setting up a "wedding announcement radar" to prevent girls from marrying him 12 years later. The little housekeeper's attacks on Charlie Brown are increasing. Previously, she allied with Patty, viewing Charlie Brown as a target for fun; now she sings in harmony with Lucy, sharp-tongued and always picking Charlie Brown's weaknesses to mock. "Father" is often the center of her arguments with him. Alan insists that his father is taller than Charlie Brown's, has broader shoulders, has a better job, a bigger car, and a stronger understanding of foreign affairs. Under continuous, various, and ingenious pranks, Charlie Brown "realizes that he is the only one who is unlucky every day of the year" and learns to write to his pen pal to vent his frustrations. Lucy is still stubbornly attached to Schroeder, pursuing her endless and unresolved one-sided love. The topics of music between the two are always at cross-purposes, just like Lucy can't tell apart America's founding father George Washington from the German composer Beethoven. When Schroeder can no longer take it, he leaves. Snoopy secretly sits at the piano and quietly kisses Lucy, who longs to be kissed, causing "Squeaky Girl" to have a series of hysterical reactions. Schroeder continues to ramble about his infinite love for Beethoven, believing that Beethoven's music is superior to all, but none of this can dispel Lucy's strong doubts: If Beethoven never ruled as a king and never won any championships, how could he deserve the word "great"?
