This volume of The Complete Peanuts is particularly romance-heavy as the Charlie Brown / Peppermint Patty / Marcie triangle heats up; love blossoms between two of the ''Beagle Scout'' birds; and Linus is still not Sally''s ''Sweet Babboo''! Meanwhile, Charlie Brown becomes, in his worst baseball-related humiliation to date, a Pelican - and Snoopy''s brother Spike is still stuck in Needles, surrounded by coyotes, with a cactus as his only friend.
