Just received this book today.

I’m not sure why Garfield hates Mondays so much. He’s a cat, he doesn’t go to work or school on Monday.

I never liked Thibault. He is probably the most obnoxious Peanuts character.

Old comic book coloring was certainly bright.

While I may not always get him exactly right, Snoopy is one of those characters that I can draw from memory:
