5.0 out of 5 stars Charles Schulz brings to us again wonderful Peanuts humor., December 5, 1998

By A Customer

Except, this time the individual comic strips are packed with compressed humor. This book has many diferrent incidents in which Snoopy is often the central character. Featuring in this book is/are Charlie Brown's infamous base ball team, the World Famous Surgeon(Snoopy), and of course, Woodstock: "King of the Jungle"! This book is a good book for anyone of any age. It is fun and lighthearted. I also recommend Charls M. Schulz's "Being a Dog is a Full Time Job." The only thing wrong with this book is that it is not long enough! I also recommend any other Schultz "Peanuts" book.

5.0 out of 5 stars More fun with the "Peanuts" gang, December 29, 2001

By	Michael J. Mazza (Pittsburgh, PA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)    (COMMUNITY FORUM 04)

"Make Way for the King of the Jungle," by Charles M. Schulz, is a delightful collection of comic strips featuring the author's popular "Peanuts" characters. Many of the recurrent themes and motifs of the series are here: Snoopy's fantasy of being a World War I flying ace, the kite-eating tree, Linus' security blanket and his obsession with the Great Pumpkin, Lucy's psychiatric stand, etc.

In the course of this book we get to experience both Christmas and Valentine's day with the "Peanuts" gang. There are a lot of antics involving Snoopy and his pal Woodstock. But my favorite extended storyline in the book involves Charlie Brown's decision to quit school in order to devote himself to making Snoopy happy. Anyone who has ever been devoted to a pet should be able to relate to this funny but tender plot.

"Peanuts" has always been a successful blend of humor and gentle philosophy, and that is true of this volume. "Make Way" is a treat for fans of Schulz's work.
