Charles M. Schulz: Complete Peanuts 1957-1958, Fester Einband

Kurzbeschreibung

As the 1950's close down,'Peanuts' enters its golden age. Linus, who had just learned to speak in the previous volume, becomes downright eloquent. Charlie Brown cascades further down the hill to loserdom. But the rising star is undoubtedly Snoopy. He's at the centre of the most action-packed episodes.
