Charles M. Schulz. It’s a Mystery, Charlie Brown (1975) A picture book based on a TV special. The panels have rounded corners like a TV screen, and are displayed against a green background on which the text is printed. A slight work, it will keep youngsters occupied for a half hour or so; but it’s not up to the classic Charlie Brown videos or books. Snoopy plays Sherlock Holmes, and finds Woodstock’s nest, which has gone missing because Susie needs an object for show-n-tell. ** (2004)
