Momentarily forsaking his role as a World War I flying ace, Snoopy turns his imaginative energies to the subtle muses of literature and, with typewriter sitting squarely atop his dog house, embarks on a career as a world-famous novelist. Acknowledging both the frustrations and satisfactions of the literary experience, Snoopy completes his magnum opus It Was a Dark and Stormy Night. Will he fulfill his ambitious quest for recognition in the field of arts and letters? Or will the prizes of literary excellence be as elusive as the cursed Red Baron? Whatever the answer, suffice it to say that the complete and unexpurgated version of Snoopy's novel is included in this volume, together with our hero's incisive first-person look into the anguish and delight of the writer's experience. All in all a welcome treat for "Peanuts" fans of all ages.
