Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

K-Gr 4–Back in the day, it wasn't Christmas until “A Charlie Brown Christmas” was shown on TV. This pop-up adaptation follows the original pretty faithfully. The illustrations are fine, and the pop-up and movable elements are simple. Still, it somehow lacks the charm of the television production–possibly because it doesn't include the voices of the child actors who embodied each character so perfectly. While it's sturdier in construction than many of the elaborate pop-up titles that have been released in recent years, it's still too fragile for repeated usage.Mara Alpert, Los Angeles Public Library

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Charles M. Schulz was born November 25, 1922 in Minneapolis. His destiny was foreshadowed when an uncle gave him, at the age of two days, the nickname Sparky (after the racehorse Spark Plug in the newspaper strip Barney Google).

In his senior year in high school, his mother noticed an ad in a local newspaper for a correspondence school, Federal Schools (later called Art Instruction Schools). Schulz passed the talent test, completed the course and began trying, unsuccessfully, to sell gag cartoons to magazines. (His first published drawing was of his dog, Spike, and appeared in a 1937 Ripley's Believe It Or Not! installment.) Between 1948 and 1950, he succeeded in selling 17 cartoons to the Saturday Evening Post—as well as, to the local St. Paul Pioneer Press, a weekly comic feature called Li'l Folks. It was run in the women's section and paid $10 a week. After writing and drawing the feature for two years, Schulz asked for a better location in the paper or for daily exposure, as well as a raise. When he was turned down on all three counts, he quit.

He started submitting strips to the newspaper syndicates. In the spring of 1950, he received a letter from the United Feature Syndicate, announcing their interest in his submission, Li'l Folks. Schulz boarded a train in June for New York City; more interested in doing a strip than a panel, he also brought along the first installments of what would become Peanuts—and that was what sold. (The title, which Schulz loathed to his dying day, was imposed by the syndicate). The first Peanuts daily appeared October 2, 1950; the first Sunday, January 6, 1952.

Diagnosed with cancer, Schulz retired from Peanuts at the end of 1999. He died on February 13, 2000, the day before Valentine's Day—and the day before his last strip was published—having completed 17,897 daily and Sunday strips, each and every one fully written, drawn, and lettered entirely by his own hand—an unmatched achievement in comics.

So disappointing

So disappointing
I had hoped that the other reviews might have just been one offs in regard to the quality. Sadly, it was not. I was so disappointed in the overall quality of the book. I’m not sure if this was used or not, but the spine is completely separated from the main part of the book, which I think caused instability in the pop-up portions. The pictures above will show you how the pop-ups have either separate completely from the page, or the pages have actually pulled apart so the mechanisms for the pop-ups don’t work. I realized after looking at this particular item, it was much less expensive than the same item from a different seller. This is clearly a reseller, and I’m not convinced that this books is of new condition. It did not come wrapped in plastic like a traditional pop-up book would be if it was brand new. if you’re willing to save the money and pull out your crafting skills, it might be worth it. But personally, I would not buy this book from this seller. I’d see if you could find it for a little bit more money to have the quality that you would expect.The sad thing, is that the book is very cute. The imagery is fun, and the storyline is festive. It would be perfect for a child. If only the condition is what you would expect to be able to give as a new item, it would have been perfect.

I saw this in a catalog I received in the mail and like I always do checked for it on Amazon! This is a cute pop up book and this is my favorite Christmas show. The publisher should put some pics of the popup pages on Amazon. I will try to take some and post them. There are large pop ups on most of the pages and some pages have small side pops also. My favorite is the very last one where it is the gang singing around Snoopy's doghouse!

Oh this book brings back memories. I love it. It is simple. The pop ups are not as fancy as some but they are wonderful. Thanks Motor City Thriftbooks for a great used book at a fair price.

I bought it knowing that it was a pop-up, but thinking it was for a young child. I would give this to the parent of a small child. Someone has to read it aloud to the child. I don't recall whether or not an age range was specified, but it's not for a 5 or 6 year old. Other than that, I like the book. Pop-ups are delightful; not too intricate. If you collect Pop-ups, you've got to get this one.

A Charlie Brown Christmas is a fantastic book for all ages. This will be given to my great grandson for Christmas, but I couldn't resist sitting down and reading it when it arrived. I know that he would love it and will love seeing all the beautiful illustrations.

I bought one for my daughter and one of my god daughter for Christmas. They both loved the book! I enjoyed it as well. Some of the pop-ups spin and twirl, which is fascinating to a 19 month old. Even though Christmas is over, my daughter is still enjoying this book.

Amazon had a great price on this book, cheaper than on Ebay. I got it for my 31 year old daughter who now has a child of her own and whose favorite holiday show was the Charlie Brown Christmas. She loves it, it arrived perfect and as-new.

I seem to recall the description for this was Good. Yeah, not so much. I intended to use this to read to my son’s class for Christmas, but I wouldn’t want to terrify the children. Waste of money.

Reviewed in Canada on April 20, 2013
I just loved The Peanuts TV Christmas special when I was growning up . I passed the joy on to my son when he was a child and now we have passed that special on to my granddaughter. She just loves this book. I fially convinced her the other day that it was time to put the book away for the rest of the year, it's April. She especially likes the page where she slides the tab out sideways and makes Charlie Brown turn around and the others dance. Pass your childhood memories on to your family.
