5C Charles M. Schulz. The World Publishing Company, 1965. First Edition.

Notes

A Charlie Brown Christmas by Charles M. Schulz is a beloved picture book adaptation of the classic 1965 animated television special of the same name. The story follows Charlie Brown as he struggles to find the true meaning of Christmas in a world that seems obsessed with commercialism and superficial cheer. Frustrated and disheartened, Charlie Brown is tasked with directing the school Christmas play, but even that turns into chaos. In a moment of quiet reflection, Linus recites a passage from the Bible about the birth of Jesus, reminding everyone of the holiday's deeper meaning. With this message at its heart, Charlie Brown finds hope and joy in the simplest of Christmas traditions.

Charles M. Schulz was the creator of Peanuts, one of the most iconic and enduring comic strips in history. Born in 1922, Schulz introduced the world to Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and their group of thoughtful, often hilariously melancholy friends in 1950. His work blended humor, philosophy, and gentle satire, resonating with readers of all ages. A Charlie Brown Christmas remains one of Schulz’s most celebrated contributions, offering a timeless message about simplicity, sincerity, and the true spirit of the holiday season.
