What really stands out in this book is how Charles M. Schulz translates his comic strip genius into a longer format. The pacing of the story flows seamlessly, and the illustrations stay true to Schulz’s iconic style.

The illustrations by Dani Jones are a highlight for me. Her style is incredibly approachable for children, with vibrant colors and a great sense of movement that keeps the action lively and engaging. At over 200 pages, it might seem like a lot for younger readers, but the book is a quick, entertaining read. The storyline is well-paced, and the characters are charming, making it enjoyable for both kids and adults.

Joni’s wit shines through from the first page as she tackles everything from feuding with a dead medium to overthinking insulting birthday cards. Her writing is irreverent and thought-provoking, offering a joy ride through eclectic essays that perfectly balance soul-searching and social commentary.
