It could be described as "just another overpriced, skinny Christmas special", but it's not really.
I first had the book for a gift when I was just a child and learning to read - I loved it! The pictures are charming and the humour worth smiling at.
I returned to this book over and over again over the years so probably nostalgia gives it a bit more credit than it deserves, but it always gave me a smile and it holds a special place in my heart.
It's easy to knock for the sake of knocking in these cynical times, but you CAN enjoy it if you don't try too hard.

Worth searching for
3 April 2000
Format:Hardcover
I remember this book so well that I can even recall how it smelled as I read it as a preschooler. This is a great little book--not outdated in the least, even almost 40 years after it first came out. My childhood copy disintegrated years ago, but I was lucky enough to find it secondhand for my own kids, who like it as much as I did. The wildly-colored pages are a precursor to sixties "groovyness," but the text is years before its time. I think children need to be taught to appreciate the little things in life just as much as adults. It is possible (and maybe necessary) to find satisfaction in daily situations. One of my favorite pages in the book shows Linus working on a jisaw puzzle. "Happiness is finding the little piece with the pink edge and part of the sky and the top of the sailboat." How true!
"Happiness is a Warm Puppy" is as genuinely appealing as it was years ago. It's easy to see why the book is still sought out at online auctions. This is a little book of endearing philosophy that will survive another 40 years.

Happiness is these reproductions!

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I thank whoever reproduced these little gems!!! I owned this in elementary school and saw it featured in a woman's magazine and flipped! This book is still as great today as it was then. I bought one for my neighbor's grandaughter and she loves it! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Wonderful Piece of Childhood

Format:Hardcover
It's great to have this book again. I had the first editions of all the small "square hardbacks" in the 60's, but lost them somewhere along the line.
They reflect the simplicity and warmth of PEANUTS in their very format.
