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 stuch in Needles, surrounded by coyotes, with a cactus his only friend.
