The Story of Charles Schulz and the Creation of Peanuts
Written by Ginger Wadsworth, Illustrated by Craig Orback
This book is the story of the comic author Charles Schulz, who created the Peanuts comics. It starts from his birth and goes through his childhood love of art, all the way into his adulthood until the creation of the Peanuts. The illustrations are very beautiful and some pages are even broken up into comic strips. This would be a great book for a grade school kid who is doing a report on Charles Schulz. Overall, 5/5.
