If you don't want to read all the Peanuts comic strips, this is a good solution. This contains all the strips that feature Snoopy thinking he is a WWI pilot. I mainly got this because it my favorite holiday songs, but this isn't a Christmas book. Very little of this has to do with the holidays.

Only issue I had with this book was they don't tell you the years the strips were made. You can tell the date because most of them have them in the corner. For me, it would have been helpful to figure out the exact year Snoopy started having a feud with the Red Baron. Other than that, I recommend getting this if you don't want the whole Peanuts collection. ( )

Snoopy. The Red Baron. A Sopwith Camel. A Fokker Triplane roaring out of the rising sun. The World War I flying ace flies high in this volume that compiles both daily and Sunday strips that feature Snoopy as the flying ace. Of all the wonderful "Peanuts" strips, Snoopy as the WWI ace are my favorites and this book was a real treat from the beginning to the end which appropriately in the last panel of the book was Linus shaking Snoopy's paw. "So long old friend. I'll miss you." That's how I feel about the loss of Schulz and his wonderful cartoon insights. I am thankful, though, for the books and print materials that keep his keen insights, sharp humor, and deep philosophical insights alive. This one does that and more, and it will go on my shelf to read again when I need to be reminded of the joys of life and the power of imagination. ( )
