Don't listen to me? I don't even know what I'm talking about! —Linus From the very beginning, I knew the protagonist of this comic strip should be a kid with a round head and a flat face. I decided to name him Charlie Brown. —Charles Schulz "Charles Schulz was not just a cartoonist. He was a philosopher. His teachings were more useful than those of the famous Aristotle, Confucius, Plato, and Socrates." —USA Today "The characters Charles Schulz created were not just iconic figures. Charlie Brown, Linus, Snoopy, Patty, Lucy—they taught us what it means to be 'human.'" —Bill Clinton (Former U.S. President)
Snoopy is sick and stays in the hospital for two weeks. This is no small matter, and everyone interferes in their own way. Lucy keeps repeating the saying, "If you have a slight fever, you should take antibiotics," and insists he get a shot; Sally visits the store, convinced she will find a sympathy card specifically designed to comfort the hospitalized puppy; Charlie Brown writes him a letter, warning him to stay away from the pretty French nurse; even Frieda, who is always critical of Snoopy, stops making things difficult for him to chase rabbits. But Alan's behavior hurts his pride. When he is discharged, Alan refuses to be touched by him—he doesn’t want to catch the dog disease. Clearly, Alan’s teasing of Snoopy is not occasional. When a bee stings Snoopy’s stomach, she piles a bunch of dirt on the puppy’s belly, claiming it will definitely heal the wound. Alan’s pranks finally get him into trouble, causing the usually uninvolved Sloth to erupt in anger.
More than a month has passed since Valentine’s Day, and Alan pretends to ask Charlie Brown if he wants a Valentine’s card. No wonder Sloth is furious and shouts, "You and your friends are the most thoughtless people I’ve ever seen." Even fresher than Sloth’s anger is the arrival of a group of "number kids." The boy named "Five" and his twin sisters, "Three" and "Four," are already hilarious in their names alone. They explain why their names are so unusual: their father was so annoyed by the overreliance on numbers to identify individuals in American society that he decided to change the family’s names to numbers, even the last name, which was changed to "95472" like a ZIP code.
