Bill Clinton called Charles Schulz an "American treasure"โ€”an artist and philosopher who keenly observed human life. The Seattle Times praised the strip's multi-generational appeal, placing Schulz at the pinnacle of this enduring art form. For Umberto Eco, the Peanuts world is a microcosm of human comedy for both innocent and sophisticated readers. The Huffington Post celebrated the collection as a chance to appreciate Schulz's entire oeuvre, capturing the happiness of a warm book. The Sunday Times highlighted Schulz's skill, subtle brilliance, and stoicism beneath the simplicity, championing the lavish republication by Canongate.
