Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for April 24, 2015

So loosen the laces, Chuck, or buy a slightly bigger size.

He never cried like that over anything Lucy did to him!

Maybe they’re orthopedic shoes. I had to wear them, growing up. Just at the age when having shoes like everyone else’s was so important, I had to wear heavy, clunky things that looked like something my dad would wear. Yeah, I often wanted to cry about it, but if I had, I’d have got “stop crying or I’ll give you a reason to.”

The Grinch hated Christmas! The whole Christmas season!Now, please don’t ask why. No one quite knows the reason.It could be his head wasn’t screwed on just right.It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight.But I think that the most likely reason of all,May have been that his heart was two sizes too small.Whatever the reason, His heart or his shoes,He stood there on Christmas Eve, hating the Whos,

I remember wearing shoes without any laces. Unlike conventional “slip ons” or moccasins, these shoes had a snap down closure to secure them on your feet..They were considered quite stylish at the time…

This is the very first time i’ve seen charlie brown crying.

Easy: rub the shoes with alcohol, so they can soften up

I’d never realized until reading these strips on GoComics how long Peanuts relied on just three kids and Snoopy. I keep expecting Violet or Schroeder to show up but it hasn’t happened yet.

Is this the first appearance of the zig-zag stripe?
