Charles Schulz and the Popular Comic Strip "Peanuts"Millions of people around the world wh

Charles Schulz and the Popular Comic Strip "Peanuts"

Millions of people around the world who loved the comic strip "Peanuts" were sad when Charles Schulz died in February, 2000. He was 77 years old. The artist who created Charlie Brown and his dog Snoopy had retired a month earlier because of poor health.

Charlie Brown, Snoopy and Other Characters in "Peanuts"

Charles Schulz drew "Peanuts" for fifty years. The comic strip first appeared in seven American newspapers in 1950. At that time, the subjects were all children and animals. They still are. People love these characters because they demonstrate the failings and strengths of all human beings. For example, Charlie Brown usually cannot get things right. But he tries his best. And he never stops trying.

The animated cartoon, "A Charlie Brown Christmas", has appeared on television since 1965. In it, Charlie Brown has to choose a Christmas tree for a special Christmas program. He gets a small ugly tree because he feels sorry for it. But the other children laugh at it. They say Charlie Brown has failed again to do something right. Then in preparing for the show, one of the children tells about the true meaning of Christmas. The other children decide that maybe they can make Charlie Brown's tree look beautiful.

Other children often criticize Charlie Brown. He suffers many losses and rejectionsjust as people sometimes do in real life. His baseball team always loses. He keeps trying to kick a football, but never succeeds. His friend Lucy keeps pulling the ball away. But he continues to believe that some day she will let him kick the ball.

Charlie Brown has a dug named Snoopy who may be even more popular than Charlie. Snoopy is a funny character. He sleeps on top of his dog house. Snoopy is always trying to write the great American novel. But he cannot get beyond the first line of his book. He writes: "It was a dark and stormy night" again and again. Snoopy dreams of himself as a pilot searching for the Red Baron, a famous German fighter pilot in World War One.

There are other memorable characters in the "Peanuts" comic strip. Lucy mistrusts everyone. She often seems angry. Schroeder plays a small toy piano every year he celebrates the birthday of com poser Ludwig yon Beethoven. Linus always carries a blanket to feel secure. Peppermint Patty is good at sports. She likes Charlie Brown very much and is the only one who calls him "Chuck".

Charles Schulz said he saw himself in some of his characters. He recognized himself in Charlie Brown's continued failures, in Snoopy's humor, in Lucy's moments of anger, and in the insecure feelings of Linus. Some of the situations in "Peanuts" seem to have developed from Mr. Schulz's own life experiences.

In 1967, the "Peanuts" characters starred in a musical play. "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown" was first performed in New York City. It later became the most produced musical in America. A new production opened on Broadway in New York in 1999. The actors in the Broadway version of the musical sing a song called "Happiness".

Charles Schulz

Charles Schulz brought happiness to millions of people. He was born in 1922 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. His father was a barber who cut men's hair. When Charlie was five, his teacher told him: "Some day, Charles, you are going to be an artist." But he some times had trouble with his school work. In high school, he was poor at sports. He was afraid to ask a girl to go out with him. His high school publication rejected some of his drawings he hoped it would publish.

At age 17, Charles began studying art. He took a class by mail from a Minnesota art school. This was the only art education he ever had.

Then came World War Two. Mr. Schulz served in the United States Army. During this period he very much enjoyed a comic strip about soldiers called "Will
