When you’re that small, I’d think a leaf could be pretty intimidating. The strange thing is that he’s not afraid of the football!

It was a falling leaf that first drew my attention to “Peanuts” as something a bit different than a ‘’cute kids’’ strip, waaay back in 1955. A falling leaf lands on Linus’s head and he looks up at the tree and says ‘’Hi.’’ I had recently learned the word ’’pantheism’’ in a philosophy class and here it was in a comic strip! I’ve been a fan ever since.
