Lucy: Speak Out!: A Peanuts Collection Volume 12

Outspoken, confident Lucy van Pelt takes center stage in a funny Peanuts comic collection for kids as she rallies her friends for equal rights, takes on baseball, and decides to write Beethoven's biography--with the whole gang along for the fun.

"Schulz's masterpiece remains . . . relevant and funny for all ages generation after generation." --Good Comics for Kids, a School Library Journal Blog

Opinionated, determined, and never afraid to speak her mind, Lucy van Pelt takes the spotlight in this classic collection of Peanuts comics for younger readers. And this time, she's using that famously big personality to rally her friends to speak out for equal rights for women.

But changing the world isn't Lucy's only project. Between social causes and dropping fly balls in the outfield, she decides to write a biography of Beethoven--much to Schroeder's dismay. Meanwhile, Woodstock tries his wing at farming, Peppermint Patty struggles to make the grade, and Charlie Brown's rotten luck lands him in the hospital.

Packed with Charles M. Schulz's timeless humor and unforgettable characters, this full-color collection celebrates confidence, friendship, determination, and finding the courage to speak out.
