This is such a treat if you love seeing an icon become itself in real time. You get the warmth and wit people adore in Peanuts, but with the extra fascination of watching Lucy, Linus, and Snoopy slowly grow into the characters everyone knows. It feels both cozy and historically special, especially because so many of these strips were hard to find for decades.
