Happiness is a Warm Puppy: The Deluxe Edition

Product Information

I treasure my Peanuts comic strips as building blocks for my character, my humor, what I think about life and love, friendship and family. I spotted this on my shelves and decided to give it another peruse, just to remind myself what Charlie Brown regarded happiness as being and how it compared to my view! It landed on the New York Times bestseller list soon afterwards, sold millions of copies over the years, and launched Schulz’s rise to stardom. In two thousand years, when our descendants (or the cockroach people) who are historians and archaeologists dig up the ruins of our mad, mad, mad, mad world, and find Happiness is A Warm Puppy, they will ponder our values and ideals, mores and morals.

Its timeless description of happiness and friendship is as important now as it was when the book was first published.Cover has light creases and front page was crinkled at some stage, but still a nice firm, straight book. What I did like was the last page that gave the reader chance to make his or her own entry as it began 'My happiness is .

One side of this charming mug shows Charlie Brown giving Snoopy a massive hug, the other reads "Happiness is a warm puppy" - we couldn't agree more! Schulz heartwarming classic, to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the publication of Schulz’ beloved “Happiness Is…. Much of the 1950s and 1960s sensibility of Schulz's daily comic strip is distilled down into single-panel homilies that capture the essence of the basic message he was trying to impart.I realised quickly and viscerally, as someone handed me my head in my hands to play with, that dogs are just not up there with human children to their parents, however incredible us owners think they are.

While they may have sentimental value, bibles passed down through the family are not often worth a lot of money.On every spread there’s a tiny tidbit of wisdom from one of the gang, along with one of Schulz’s irresistible drawings. Turning off the personalised advertising setting won’t stop you from seeing Etsy ads, but it may make the ads you see less relevant or more repetitive.

It's not so much a story as a collection of cute illustrations and fun little sayings, but I do like that it ends with the idea that happiness means different things to everyone. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Lucy herself is happy with an umbrella and a new raincoat as she walks in the rain or when she is playing with her friends Sally and Marcie in a sandpit.The key is to grab on to those moments and those things and understand the satisfaction of experiencing them instead of allowing yourself to believe that satisfaction is something you constantly have to be acquiring and working towards. Stuck for any way of contributing meaningfully to such conversations, on one occasion, I resorted to referencing my amazing and hugely talented ‘fur baby’ and how well his training was going. This set of small hardback books, starting with "Happiness is a Warm Puppy" ended up on the bestseller lists for both adult and youth books. Schulz's work went on to become the most popular syndicated comic strip of all time, appearing in 2600 papers in 75 countries around the world.
