Two more years of the complete reprinting of Charles Schulz's landmark strip. In general it's still a fine strip, but the heights have been scaled and will only rarely be returned to. The most intriguing recurring bit is the competition between Peppermint Patty and Marcie for the affections of a mostly oblivious Charlie Brown. The most memorable strip here is one in which Charlie Brown asks advice of younger sister Sally, who has suddenly become inexplicably wise:
Charlie Brown: "I think Peppermint Patty and Marcie like me, but I don't know why... I wish I could ask them..."
Sally: "It's all right to ask somebody why they hate you, but you should never ask somebody why they like you..."
Charlie brown: "Why is that?"
Sally: "It's a harder question." ( )
