review:
'Snoopy Features as Master of Disguise' by Charles M. Schulz is a pocket edition of Peanuts reprints featuring Snoopy. It's a fun little book that harkens back to pocket book editions of comics I read years ago.
Snoopy is a master of disguise. Whether he is pretending to be Joe Cool, a surveyor or a famous surgeon. He is a hired hand that can't seem to use a shovel correctly. He is an astronaut. He is a grocery clerk who likes to comment on magazine reading customers. He is a veteran out drinking root beers with his fellow veterans. He is the Masked Marvel locked in an arm-wrestling contest with Lucy. He is all of these and more, and almost all of them "world famous."
It's a good little collection. Missing is the Red Baron, which is certainly a disguise Snoopy is known for, but there are plenty of other great Snoopy moments. A weird addition is a series featuring a girl named Tapioca Pudding. Snoopy eventually plays into it, but he's not around for quite a few pages. It seemed like an odd choice, but perhaps only certain years got licensed for this collection. Still, Peanuts is a classic, and it's good to see it getting any sort of reprint.
I received a review copy of this ebook from Open Road Integrated Media, Peanuts, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
