The third volume in Canongate’s acclaimed series, with a specially commissioned introduction from The Simpsons’ Matt Groening. We travel into the mid-1950s as Linus learns to talk, Snoopy begins to explore his eccentricities, Lucy’s unrequited crush on Schroeder takes final shape, and Charlie Brown becomes … well, even more Charlie Brown-ish.
