This volume contains many images & stories I recognized from the tv holiday specials. It was a mix of comics I'd read in hand-me-down paperbacks from my mom, and ones I'd never seen before.

Enter Peppermint Patty.

Charlie Brown has a memorable time at camp and makes a new friend. This friend, Roy, later introduces Charlie Brown to his friend Peppermint Patty, who gives a few pointers to his baseball team. I'd forgotten that she calls Lucy "Lucille" as well as Charlie Brown "Chuck".

There's a lot more to love, but I've been distracted from reviewing and I lost my notes on this volume and I have 'Volume 9' waiting on my bedside table already! I've been waiting for these to start getting stale, but I'm loving them all.

Charlie Brown: "You know what?"
Shermy: "What?"
Charlie Brown: "A peanut butter sandwich is just the sandwich to be eating when you're looking across the playground at a little red-haired girl you admire, but you know you haven't a chance of ever meeting..."
Shermy: "Why is that?"
Charlie Brown: "If you have to ask, you'll never understand!"
