The Peanuts Movie Page #4

Oh!

I'm okay.

Big book.

How are you going to

get it home, smarty pants?

Huh, pretty smart.

Huh!

What am I saying?

Good ol' Charlie Brown.

Now, there's a guy

who is going places.

Whoaa!

Thanks.

AAUGH !

- Huh?

- SURPRISE!

Happy birthday.

Who invited him?

Huh?

WAR and Peace.

Page 1.

Eh bien, Mon prince, so Genoa...

(Well, Prince, so Genoa...)

- Hey, Charlie Brow, come out and play!

- Hey, Charlie Brow, come out and play!

- Sorry, guys.

- Ohh.

Who reads a book on the weekend?

Okay, where was I?

... took a horse from a commander,

and hungry and weary,

... and the musketry fire

sounded far away.

... unimportance of life which

no one could understand,

... there was yesterday,

and there was the day before.

- Ooo.

- Ooo.

- Aww.

- Aww.

Okay, show's over!

Clear out!

Will there be a late show?

... and to recognize a

dependence we do not feel.

The end.

I did it.

It's all coming together now.

Okay. This is my book report

about War and Peace.

1, 2, 3, 4,

5, 6, 7, 8, 9.

First, there was war.

Then there was peace.

10, 11, 12, 13,

14, 15, 16, 17 ?

Only 983 words to go.

Rats!

This is no use.

I'm just not as smart

as they think I am.

Huh!

I can't let her down.

There's still time.

You can do this.

You can't give up

on her now.

998, 999, 1000.

Finished!

- Wake up, big brother!

- Augh!

Today's the big assembly to

celebrate your perfect score!

Come see!

What are you up to now?

Now that you're a big celebrity,

we have to move fast.

I have shirts, hats,

mugs and more!

The fame that comes with intellectual

superiority can be very fleeting.

You have to cash in

while you can.

Today's going to be a big

day for us, big brother.

Thank you.

Come again soon.

This is all for you, Charlie Brown.

You've really made it.

It's going to happen.

She's finally gonna notice me

for doing something great.

Charlie Brown.

I hate to admit it, you blockhead,

but public opinion leads me to

believe that after all these years,

I may have been wrong about you.

This is not easy for me!

MY WHOLE WORLD HAS

TURNED UPSIDE DOWN!

Can I please have Charlie Brown

come to the stage?

It is my pleasure

to present to you today,

this award, for the highest achievement

in this year's standardized testing.

But before I do,

the school proclamation.

On this day whereas you have upheld

the highest of academic standards,

and whereas no one would have

ever expected that of you,

and whereas you are the first

to ever receive a perfect score,

therefore, be it resolved that today

is declared Charlie Brown Day.

Signed, Miss Othmar.

That's my big brother.

How about that, Charlie Brown.

You're the star

of the school now.

Congratulations, Charles.

Let me present you

with your perfect test.

Oh, no.

I must have signed

the wrong paper

Yeah!

Before I begin,

I'd like to thank all

of you for your support.

You have all been so kind.

It is not often that I get

this sort of recognition.

But... um,

there's been a mistake.

This is not my test.

HA!

I knew it!

Huh!

Therefore,

I cannot accept this honor.

Can a brother and sister

get a divorce?

I think this belongs

to Peppermint Patty.

She's the real genius.

That was a very admirable thing

you just did, Charlie Brown.

One moment I'm the hero,

the next I'm the goat.

Maybe things will go your way again,

after you hand in your book report.

I'm not so sure.

I was up all night working on it

and I can't remember a single word.

Surely it's not as bad as

you think, Charlie Brown.

Let me see what you wrote.

Charlie Brown, the insight you bring to

such a complex novel is beyond reproach!

You two are sure to win the gold star

with a book report of this quality.

Book report?

Were we supposed

to do a book report?

Oh, hi.

In light of the fact

that you were away,

Charlie Brown took it upon himself to

complete the report for the both of you.

And I must say, this is

one of the finest bits

of literary analysis I've ever read.

Ow!

AAUGH !

No. No. No.

Good grief.

Maybe we can fix it?

Chapter 4

Curse you, Red Baron!

AHHH!

- He did it!

- He did it!

Oh.

Aww.

Blehh.

Yikes!

Yikes.

The Flying Ace set out across

the hostile countryside, undeterred.

Whenever I feel really alone,

I just sit and stare

into the night sky.

I've always thought that

one of those stars was my star,

and at moments like this,

I know that my star

will always be there for me.

Like a comfortable voice saying,

"Don't give up, kid."

The Flying Ace had to

return to the aerodrome

if he was ever

to rescue Fifi.

Hey!

Shhh.

Christmas time is here

Happiness and cheer

Yeah.

Chuck?

Your crazy dog is

over here again.

Aww.

Excuse me, mister.

Have you ever flown a kite?

Um.

Well... uh.

Actually, let me just say that,

I have years of experience

with kites,

- but I...

- That's great!

Oh, uh,

well, okay.

The thing is,

flying a kite isn't for everyone.

It takes a certain type of person.

It can be frustrating at times,

they tend to have

a mind of their own.

But with determination and dedication,

you can make it happen.

- Really!

- Here.

You hold this string.

Plant your feet.

Lean forward, knees bend,

back straight, head up

and remember,

keep it simple.

- Okay.

- Now, when I say go,

run as fast as you can.

Which way, mister?

That way!

Now, go!

I hope the little guy doesn't

get discourage, Snoopy.

He doesn't quite know

how difficult this will be.

It may take him years to

gain my level of experience.

It doesn't just happen over...

Huh?

Woo hoo!

It's flying!

Wow!

Thanks, mister.

You sure know your kites.

Do you wanna try?

You can do it!

Don't give up!

Chapter 7

Never give up!

The Flying Ace

knew this will be

the last chance to save

the love of his life.

The Flying Ace returned to the

aerodrome with the love of his life.

He returned a hero.

And so, as our hero observed

he was destined to face the

infamous Red Baron another day.

A dog that flies?

This is the dumbest thing

I've ever read!

Ow!

AAUGH!

I got dog germs!

- Come on, Charlie Brown!

- Come on, Charlie Brown!

Hm.

Today calls for something special.

Here we go.

Hey, guys.

It's the last day of school!

Well, big brother,

can you believe it?

No more reading,

writing, arithmetic!

No more learning ever!

What are you talking about?

This is just the start

of summer vacation.

You have eight more years

of grammar school,

four more years of high school,

plus four more years of college.

... four add the one to the extra four.

It's over 37 years of school!

I'll be bald and

wrinkly by then!

- Wow.

- Wow.

Whoa!

Look at that!

Is that Snoopy?

Lucky.

- Aww.

- Aww.

Okay, everyone, listen up.

I know this is the

last day of school,

- Yay!

- Yay!

but, first, before we leave,

we need to finish

picking our partners

for this year's summer

pen pal project.

- Aww!

- Aww!

When I draw a name, stand

if you want to be their partner.
