50 years of Holiday Comics
By Charles Schulz
Graphic Novel
This is a book about the Peanuts Christmas as Charles Schulz has told the different stories over a period of fifty years. There are different scenes where they build snowmen or when some of the characters write their letters to Santa clause. In this book we get to see the interactions between the characters in the different eras of the book's time span. We also get to see when the new characters are born to the story. We even get to see that Snoopy has a brother that lives in the desert. This is obviously a classic for many generations and the way it is made is awesome because it portrays what could almost be real life in the sense that the kids all have their own problems.
I think I would use this for my class because it is important for children to get exposed to this kind of literature. I would provably read it aloud as we approach Christmas and maybe the students could do an activity like making a play dough snowman or another craft. This book would be appropriate for K through third grade.
