The Complete Peanuts 1969-1970 (v. 10)

The Complete Peanuts 1969-1970 (v. 10) Review



In Charles Schulz's The Complete Peanuts 1969-1970, Woodstock makes his first appearance, Peppermint Patty runs afoul of her school's dress code, Lucy declares herself a "New Feminist," and Snoopy returns to the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm on a speaking engagement. Speaking of Snoopy, this volume falls under the sign of the Great Beagle, as three separate storylines focus on the mysterious sovereign of Beagledom. Lucy throws Schroeder's piano into the maw of the kite-eating tree, with gruesome results... Miss Othmar goes on strike and Linus gets involved... Charlie Brown's baseball team has an actual (brief) winning streak... Snoopy's quest to compete in the Oakland ice skating competition is thwarted by his inability to find a partner... Charlie Brown goes to a banquet to meet his hapless baseball hero Joe Shlabotnik... Snoopy is left in the Van Pelt family's care as the Browns vacation... and the Little Red-Haired Girl moves away.
