What began in the funny pages in 1950 has developed into an enduring classic. Whether you're a fussbudget like Lucy, philosopher like Linus, Flying Ace like Snoopy, or a lovable loser like Charlie Brown, there is something to touch your heart or make you laugh in Peanuts. Charles Schulz’s Peanuts is one of the most timeless and beloved comic strips ever. Now AMP! helps carry on that legacy with new collections of Peanuts classics focused around topics sure to resonate with middle-grade readers. Kicking off the series is Snoopy: Cowabunga! First published in 1950, the classic Peanuts strip now appears in more than 2,200 newspapers in 75 countries in 25 languages. Phrases such as “security blanket” and “good grief,” which originated in the Peanuts world, are now part of the global vernacular, and images of Charles Schulz’s classic characters— Charlie Brown kicking the football, Lucy leaning over Schroeder’s piano—are now universally recognized. Together these books will introduce a new generation of kids to the lovable cast in time for the new animated Peanuts movie, which hits theaters in 2015!

Stories of twins are told with astonishing frequency in contemporary culture. Films and novels from recent decades repeatedly tell of the stranglehold of brotherly love, the evil twin who steals her sister's lover, the homicidal mutant twin, the reunion of twins separated at birth, warring twins, and confusion between look-alikes. Twins in Contemporary Literature and Culture asks why we keep telling twin tales and how these have been transformed in recent retellings to reflect the preoccupations of the times.
The first edition (1995) of the "Whole Kitten Caboodle" lists every "Kitten" in the world and All Kittens are directly related. We have traced our roots to 1100 A. D.. All of the Kitten Surname have traced their roots to Ibbenburen, West Germany with their address "From Kitte To Hollenberke", Cousin Reinhold Kitten lives on this land which has been owned by the Kitten Family since the 1100's. The name "Kitte" in German means CEMENT. The mountain is being mined even today for coal and cement products. Some German plurals are often formed by adding an "n" so one could say that the name "Kitten" could easily be translated as "the people from Kitte." The second edition has the original 360 page book "The Whole Kitten Caboodle"and most exciting of all is JERRY'S version of the family tree and who inspires and motivates the FAMILY. My 84 pages include such items as bravery and fear, how close are they, a challenge is not required, our wisdom comes from challenges and wisdom is actually the ability to DISCERN DIFFERENCE. And lastly our ancestors searched for a better life and Jerry's question to you is: When did you receive that desire to search for a better life?
