Schulz adds two new cast members: The obnoxious Frieda, of “naturally curly hair” fame, and her inert, seemingly boneless cat Faron. The rapidly maturing Sally, who was just born in the previous volume, is ready to start kindergarten and not at all happy about it. Linus’ life is particularly turbulent, as he is forced to wear glasses, sees the unexpected return of his beloved Miss Othmar, and coaxes Sally into the cult of the Great Pumpkin (with regrettable results). Snoopy, meanwhile, becomes a compulsive water sprinkler head stander, unhappily befriends a snowman or two, and endures a family crisis involving a little family of birds. Plus baseball blowouts (including a rare team victory), Beethoven birthdays, and plenty of dubious psychiatric help for a nickel.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCharles M. Schulz \u003c\/b\u003ewas 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 \u003ci\u003eBarney Google\u003c\/i\u003e). His ambition from a young age was to be a cartoonist and his first success was selling 17 cartoons to the \u003ci\u003eSaturday Evening Post\u003c\/i\u003e between 1948 and 1950. He also sold a weekly comic feature called \u003ci\u003eLi'l Folks\u003c\/i\u003e to the local \u003ci\u003eSt. Paul Pioneer Press\u003c\/i\u003e. 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.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe started submitting strips to the newspaper syndicates and in the spring of 1950, United Feature Syndicate expressed interest in \u003ci\u003eLi'l Folks\u003c\/i\u003e. They bought the strip, renaming it \u003ci\u003ePeanuts\u003c\/i\u003e, a title Schulz always loathed. The first \u003ci\u003ePeanuts\u003c\/i\u003e 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eJazz pianist and singer \u003cb\u003eDiana Krall\u003c\/b\u003e's albums include \u003ci\u003eThe Look of Love, The Girl in the Other Room, From This Moment On, Quiet Nights\u003c\/i\u003e and more.
