Happiness Is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown Page #3

---

in the shape of a kite.

Please return.

Anything else?

Owner desperate.

What if it never landed?

What if it kept flying?

What if it went out over the ocean?

Oh, my poor blanket!

It's always been afraid of the water!

It can't swim!

It can't even wade!

Where's Linus?

How should I know?

He's probably standing somewhere waiting

for his stupid blanket to come back.

Why'd you have to let go of it?

It's for his own good, Charlie Brown.

He has two days left to break that dumb

habit before Grandma gets here.

He might as well get used to it now.

You know, Lucy, I have to admit,

I see some value in this blanket business.

It seems to put him in a mood

for contemplation.

I imagine it quiets his mind

so he can really think about things.

In fact, I think a lot of your problems

would be solved, Lucy, if you had a blanket.

Maybe if you had a blanket,

you wouldn't be so crabby.

And so mean-spirited. And so...

Quick-tempered.

Star light, star bright

First star I see tonight

I wish I may, I wish I might

Have the wish I wish tonight

I wish I had my Sweet Babboo

right here beside me.

You stupid star.

This first night without the blanket

is going to be the hardest.

It's hard on a little kid who has always

depended on a blanket...

...suddenly to be deprived of it.

He's feverish.

Is it morning yet?

No, it's only 10:00.

Ten o'clock?

This night is going to last forever.

I'll never make it.

Why did Lucy have to let go

of my blanket?

Why?

It's nice of you to sit up with me

this first night.

This is what friends are for.

Good old Charlie Brown.

He's finally gone to sleep.

Maybe if he can make it through the night

without his blanket, he'll be all right.

Sleep is just what he needs.

If he can just sleep for...

How's he doing?

I can't go through another night

like last night again.

Can't I try and find you another substitute

or something, Linus?

Would you give a starving dog

a rubber bone?

You know, Charlie Brown, when a child

is without his security blanket...

...people don't realize what

it does to him.

But that blanket sure can cause

you problems, Linus.

Listen, Charlie Brown.

That old blanket soaks up all my fears

and frustrations.

Don't you have fears and frustrations,

Charlie Brown?

- Blockhead.

- Blockhead.

Blockhead.

Here comes old Charlie Brown.

Good old Charlie Brown. Yes, sir.

How I hate him.

They found it! I'm saved!

Look, look! I got a telegram from

the Air Rescue Service.

They found my blanket floating

in the ocean.

- They even put it in the mail for me.

- Wow!

I'll say.

They found my blanket, Charlie Brown.

They found my blanket.

Here's a telegram for you.

Grandma. One more day.
