“A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving” was published in 1973, shortly after the movie aired for the first time. The Peanuts Comic book and movie has been a favorite for a very long time.
The book was written by Charles Shulz. It is about a young girl, Peppermint Patty, who invites herself and her friends over to Charlie Brown’s home for Thanksgiving Dinner.
Characters such as Snoopy, Linus and Woodstock, attempt to make a Thanksgiving dinner for all of Charlie Brown’s friends. What they ended up making turned out horrible, because they didn’t know how to make food properly. So, instead their dinner consisted of pretzels, toast, popcorn and jellybeans. They all enjoyed their Thanksgiving dinner.
“Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is a cute book that I always used to read during the holidays,” said sophomore Brooke Bondi.
This book tells children the true meaning of Thanksgiving. It shows that being with people for Thanksgiving can mean a lot, by showing everyone love and kindness.
