Reviews
- "For all the joy Charlie Brown and the gang gave readers over half a century, their creator, Charles Schulz, was a profoundly unhappy man. It's widely known that he hated the name Peanuts, which was foisted on the strip by his syndicate. But Michaelis, given access to family, friends and personal papers, reveals the full extent of Schulz's depression, tracing its origins in his Minnesota childhood." - Publishers Weekly Review
- "An extraordinary achievement... that shrinks Schulz down to human size and enlarges our love of his work." - Time Magazine
-
Family Response
- "The whole thing is wrong, and the reason it's wrong is because he puts negative twists on everything, and he psychoanalyzes my dad and every relative, and my mom, and paints a picture of our family, like we had this terrible family and our life wasn't very good, and dad was cold and distant. And it was totally opposite of how we all grew up." - Amy Schulz Johnson
