Fly, You Stupid Kite, Fly! (Peanuts Classics)

This slim 1990 volume from Henry Holt and Co. collects a single, timeless Peanuts sequence by the legendary Charles Schulz, centered on a kite that refuses to cooperate with its would-be flyer. As both writer and artist, Schulz brings his signature blend of gentle melancholy and wry humor to the Snoopy and Woodstock story, capturing the quiet, relatable frustration of a simple outdoor adventure gone wrong. Though just one issue, it stands as a charming, self-contained snapshot of Schulz’s masterful ability to find profound meaning in life’s small, silly defeats.
