A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving
'A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving' created by Charles M. Schlutz. This is one of my favorite holiday cartoons this time of year. It is no longer shown as a holiday special on network television, but I can watch it on DVD. This is when Charlie Brown receives a telephone call by Peppermint Patty and invited herself to Thanksgiving dinner, but Charlie has other plans. The whole gang gathers in Charlie's backyard for a 'special' dinner. There are to me many still funny scenes.

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
This one is late since Halloween is over, but 'It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown created by Charles M. Schlutz is another one of my favorite holiday specials that is no longer offered on television. This one is when Linus sits in the pumpkin patch waiting for him like the Great Pumpkin is Santa Claus. All his friends do all the fun Halloween activities, and even Snoopy has an adventure.

A Charlie Brown Christmas
A bit early for this one, but 'A Charlie Brown Christmas' created by Charles M Schlutz is another one of my favorite holiday specials, but no longer able to watch on network television. This is the one where Charlie is depressed due to the fact of all the commercialism of the holiday. He seeks out help and becomes part of a school play with all the gang. This is where they all learn the real meaning of Christmas. In all these years I still feel 'real in' watching this one even though it does seem somewhat dated, but still fun to watch.

Dai and the Missing Baby Crocodile
'Dai and the Missing Baby Crocodile' written by David Hale and drawn by Nicholas Child in a way answers my question- How do we differentiate between various kinds of animals? This is the story of Dai and a little boy named Johnny Jones and their travels through the countryside. This is a story that shows David's and Nicholas's imagination about learning about very specific types of animals. Nicholas's artwork is one way that tells this story that shows and tells the importance of family. It is also a book that could be a game.

Art History 101 Without the Exams
'Art History 101 Without the Exams' is an academic textbook that is written by Annie Montgomery Labatt. This is a textbook that to me read just like a novel. The book starts out looking at prehistoric art all the way to modern art. The technical format of the book is fine print on glossy pages, but still easy to read. The images in the book are bright and vivid and shows the reader what the artists saw and did during the times of their lives.
