The Complete Peanuts 1999-2000 Comics & Stories: Gift Box Set - Hardcover: 0 : Schulz, Charles M, Obama, Barack, Schulz, Jean: desertcart.co.uk: Books Review: If You're Cherry-Picking, Pick This Cherry - The Peanuts dailies don't have the same cultural importance to any UK readers that they have for US readers: we may have affection for Schulz's troupe of little Americans, but our affection was born in the cartoons, or compilations, or full-colour strips. Fantagraphics' amazing run of 26 volumes has therefore been for the most part an unnecessary purchase except for the most rabid collector; I'd recommend most readers to aim instead for the glorious full colour of the same publisher's series of [(Peanuts Every Sunday : The 1950s Gift Box Set)] [By (author) Charles M Schulz] published on (December, 2015) which will do very nicely. That said, I had to write a separate review for this gift set of volumes 25-26 because it really is special and deserves your consideration even if you're not going along for the full ride in B&W. About half of volume 25 represents the final dailies, then the other half contains the full run of Li'l Folks, which was the strip that Schulz wrote prior to Peanuts and that paved the way for it. This half volume is comparable to the Walt Before Skeezix (Walt and Skeezix) volume: a study of origins that will be fascinating for any comic book reader. The other volume here collects single stories and ephemera: it is not complete, but it gathers so much together that it is pretty much essential for a Peanuts reader, whether or not you have the houseroom, cash or tenacity to go for the entire 26-volume run. They really save the best for last with this series. Review: It's Peanuts - Its Peanuts, you know Charlie Brown and the gang, what is there not to like, if you know who Charlie brown is then good on you, you know how much enjoyment there is in reading peanuts and if you don't know who we are talking about, what have you done with your life, live under a rock!! come on read Peanuts and have a smile on your face.

Creio que para essa coleção, o formato box (com dois livros) é o ideal para se ter na estante. O box, além de proteger da poeira os livros, fica bonito e organizado a medida que vc vai completando a coleção, além de sair mais em conta. Enfim, uma edição super caprichada e bem acabada para a coleção definitiva dos Peanuts.

This series is so wonderful and such a great way to read all of the peanuts books in order. You can experience the character development as well as an evolution of the artist’s style. The box sets are really the way to go and I wish all years will be back in print soon.

Peanutsの集大成! コアなファンはもちろん、初めて読む人にもオススメ。 ただ、標準的な英語力かそれ以上は求められる。 私は高校の授業で使用しました。 ハードカバーなので、ペーパーブックとは違い、永久保存版です。 汚さずに読んでいきたい本。
