Rating: Summary: Peanuts Finds Its Niche Review: I believe this collection was originally entitled Good Ol' Charlie Brown. It seemed like Peanuts was truly finding its niche at the time these cartoons came out. You had Lucy being bossy, crabby, and chatty (is it any wonder Charlie Brown complained about stomach cramps when she was trying to teach Linus the "facts of life"?). Linus was beginning to enjoy the comforts of his blanket. Snoopy had learned how to dance and pantomime (he's a scream when he does imitations of Lucy, Violet, Beethoven- much to Schroeder's offense and Mickey Mouse). Charlie Brown had started asking the question "How come nobody likes me?" and of course, loses every baseball game (unless it's raining and the other team never shows up).Btw, the title comes from a cartoon where Charlie builds a birdhouse for sparrows.
