"Snoopy is running in front of Charlie Brown who is dressed for winter. He is rolling snow to build a snowman. <br> <br> Charlie Brown and Snoopy are standing in front of the finished Snowman both looking very Happy with big smiles on their faces. <br> <br> Snoopy is sitting in front of Charlie Brown Listening to him tell him, “I’m going home to eat lunch, Snoopy, and I want you to guard my snowman...don’t let anyone harm it!” <br> <br> Snoopy is sitting on top of the Snowman thinking” One thing I’m good at is guarding things! It’s a point of distinction with my particular breed!” <br> <br> “I’ll guard this snowman against enemies from the north, south, east and west! I’ll guard this snowman against enemies from below and from...” Snoopy is thinking as he looks from side to side and then below. <br> <br> “........above.........” as Snoopy looks up at the Sun with a discouraging look. <br> <br> Still sitting on the Snowman Snoopy holds his ears out like and umbrella trying to keep the sun from melting the snowman. <br> <br> Snoopy is now laying on the snowman’s head and neck trying to protect it from the sun as it is starting to slowly melt. <br> <br> Snoopy is now hugging the back side of the snowman as it continues to slowly melt from the sun. <br> <br> Snoopy is now back sitting on the snowman’s head, holding his arms out trying to block the sun as the snowman continues to melt at a faster rate. <br> <br> Snoopy is now laying in the puddle of the melted snowman looking very sad, as Charlie Brown walks up to him and says “you just can’t do ANYTHING, can you?” <br> <br>" description,"Snoopy is running in front of Charlie Brown who is dressed for winter.

I love the next to last panel of Snoopy desperately begging the sun not to melt the snowman:)

By standing on it like that, his body heat might have been as much to blame as the sun.
