Wonderful collection of strips from the final year of what is probably one of the all-time greatest comics in the history of comic strips。 This book reminds me of how sad I was when the strip ended。 So many years of following the antics of Snoopy, Charlie Brown, Linus, and the rest of the Peanuts gang。

I have been a lifelong Peanuts fan and was thrilled to find a full-color collection of the entire final year of daily and Sunday strips (including the final one on Feb 13, 2000) in one book。

this is a really funny book that involves different point of views。

My friends on here already know how impactful comic strips have been on me; if you want to know that story, go read my reviews of other Peanuts compilations, or the various Garfield or Dilbert volumes。So。。。how was this book? It was fun, though the characters acted rather strange at times; occasionally, Peppermint Patty's words reminded me of the old fan theories about Scooby-Doo (not that I have ever subscribed to or even believed such things)。Not only that, but, the edition I had was apparently My friends on here already know how impactful comic strips have been on me; if you want to know that story, go read my reviews of other Peanuts compilations, or the various Garfield or Dilbert volumes。So。。。how was this book?

Linus van Pelt is my favorite fictional character of all time, firstly。Also, it was great getting to see the strips from the year I was born ('99)。 There was something special about seeing the exact strip drawn on the day I was born, and it involved a card tower, which made me happy!

I mean, who could forget Snoopy and gang?(view spoiler)[It was a real joy and treasure to be able to revisit the entire year's worth of Peanuts comics, leading up to the final one in the year 2000 when Charles Schulz announced his farewell to his faithful readers of the almost-daily comic strip。 (hide spoiler)]The goodbye felt personal; Peanuts as a comic strip has a way of transporting you into your own childhood/ adolescent years (alright, I'm only 18 and perhaps I might still be a teen but I I mean, who could forget Snoopy and gang?(view spoiler)[It was a real joy and treasure to be able to revisit the entire year's worth of Peanuts comics, leading up to the final one in the year 2000 when Charles Schulz announced his farewell to his faithful readers of the almost-daily comic strip。 (hide spoiler)]The goodbye felt personal; Peanuts as a comic strip has a way of transporting you into your own childhood/ adolescent years (alright, I'm only 18 and perhaps I might still be a teen but I feel old ), and Mr Schulz himself felt like a grandfather who lived down the street, watching over us。 His farewell could almost be likened to how you might not see this old man again because he's got to move in with his child/into an aging home somewhere in another state。 Rest in peace, Mr Schulz。 。。。more

167 pages of pure enjoyment。 My daughter currently adores these characters。 We read this together。 My childhood love for the Peanuts characters, especially Snoopy, been re-newed。 Classic and fantastic。。。loved this read。

Cat Rayne

The comic that remains timely throughout generations。 Favorite one has Charle Brown in bed with Snoopy at his feet。Charlie Brown asks,” Sometimes I like awake at night, and I ask, ‘is life a multiple choice test or is it a true or false test?’ In the next frame he says,” then a voice comes to me out of the dark, and says,’ We hate to tell you this, but life is a thousand word essay。’ “Proved a fun read over a week or so。 A daily dose of Peanuts can brighten the days。

This was a Christmas present that I absolutely adore! I never understand why some people are just 'so-so' about Snoopy and the gang。 They're great friends to know and love。 Everyone knows a Sally and a Lucy and a Marcie for example, everyone can relate to experiencing Charlie's bad luck at some point in their lives。 If not the books then I implore you to watch the TV show and the movies - you won't be disappointed。 This was a Christmas present that I absolutely adore!

A wonderful finish to one of the best comic strips of all time。

Newspaper comic strips get a bad rap, but I am ever impressed with their ability to churn out content 365 days a year。 The fact that this man did it for 50 years, is all the more impressive。 While not every strip is a winner (let's face it, "you are weird" is not a punch line) he maintains a pretty high batting average。 I don't remember the last years of the comic being so Rerun focused, and was a little sad that Linus got such little time, but I suppose he had his time in the sun。 Newspaper comic strips get a bad rap, but I am ever impressed with their ability to churn out content 365 days a year。 The fact that this man did it for 50 years, is all the more impressive。 While not every strip is a winner (let's face it, "you are weird" is not a punch line) he maintains a pretty high batting average。 I don't remember the last years of the comic being so Rerun focused, and was a little sad that Linus got such little time, but I suppose he had his time in the sun。 。。。more

Another great PEANUTS collection, but get THE COMPLETE PEANUTS 1999 to 2000 instead。 This one abridges a panel from the Sunday pages。 The other prints every panel created by Schulz during these years and includes his pre-PEANUTS strip LI'L FOLKS as well。 That one is 5 stars。 Another great PEANUTS collection, but get THE COMPLETE PEANUTS 1999 to 2000 instead。 This one abridges a panel from the Sunday pages。 The other prints every panel created by Schulz during these years and includes his pre-PEANUTS strip LI'L FOLKS as well。 That one is 5 stars。 。。。more

The entire last year of Peanuts with the farewell strip from Charles Schulz in one volume。 Awesome reading for comic fans who remember the oldies but goodies。 I might get some criticism for not going the full five stars on this one but some of the strips were just a bit too sweet for me。 Not that I did not fully enjoy my time spent reading this book, and I did actually find myself laughing out loud at some of the antics of the old crew。 I guess I am becoming a bitter old man when I say no to giv The entire last year of Peanuts with the farewell strip from Charles Schulz in one volume。 Awesome reading for comic fans who remember the oldies but goodies。 I might get some criticism for not going the full five stars on this one but some of the strips were just a bit too sweet for me。 Not that I did not fully enjoy my time spent reading this book, and I did actually find myself laughing out loud at some of the antics of the old crew。 I guess I am becoming a bitter old man when I say no to giving old Chuck five stars。 Really this one at least gets a high four star from this reader。 。。。more

Some people didn't care for this book simply because the publishers colored in the strips, even the dailies。 That didn't bother me a bit。 I just love seeing the strips, and they're well-presented, too。 Some people didn't care for this book simply because the publishers colored in the strips, even the dailies。 That didn't bother me a bit。 I just love seeing the strips, and they're well-presented, too。 。。。more

I liked this book because the comics were very funny and the pictures were good。 My favorite character was snoopy because he would ask for his dog food five minutes early and wouldn't get anything because he was only five minutes early。 I liked how snoopywould fly his dog house in wars and how he would play with woodstock and his friends。 I would recommend this book to someone who likes comics。 I liked this book because the comics were very funny and the pictures were good。 My favorite character was snoopy because he would ask for his dog food five minutes early and wouldn't get anything because he was only five minutes early。 I liked how snoopywould fly his dog house in wars and how he would play with woodstock and his friends。 I would recommend this book to someone who likes comics。 。。。more

Peanuts。。。if (as is the case with some people in my children's generation I know) your only exposure to Peanuts is (are) the TV cartoon, then you really don't know the strip。 Please do yourself a favor and track down some of the collections of the comics。 There is far more than humor in these strips。 There is wisdom also。 This is an anniversary collection and as good as always。 Peanuts。。。if (as is the case with some people in my children's generation I know) your only exposure to Peanuts is (are) the TV cartoon, then you really don't know the strip。 Please do yourself a favor and track down some of the collections of the comics。 There is far more than humor in these strips。 There is wisdom also。 This is an anniversary collection and as good as always。 。。。more
