Charlie’s Resurrection By: T-Way Creasy Imagine if you will, a talking scarecrow named Charlie with an intellectual mind and the ability to communicate to the animal world. When Charlie on his cross is suddenly blown over by a powerful thunderstorm and he doesn’t have the “spine-bone strength to come to his own aid,” it takes his animal friends to come to his rescue. Surprisingly, a crow named Cornelius even takes part in the rescue. To make matters worse, however, a large clan of crows (in the thousands), including a crow-militia, are about to descend upon the cornfield. The story includes a cat named Randolf* who befriends two mice, an erratic brown rabbit named Bernice who gets into more trouble than she deserves, a fox who eats crow (in more ways than one), a nervous raccoon who has a speech problem, a crow who must defend his rights in the crow community and a scarecrow who dreams he is a human. The story unfolds from dusk to dawn as prey versus predator versus predator, the evolution of unusual friendships, family ties becoming broken, tragedy and mishap ensue, all coming together for one spectacular event—Charlie’s Resurrection!

This is the story of a young lad who loses his pa at the age of eleven and takes on the responsibility of the family farm. Charlie always tries to remember his father’s counsel and follow it by doing right for others. However, his sixteenth birthday finds him overwhelmed with the arrival of a card containing a strange poetic message. This ordeal has Charlie in a state of confusion. Along with his pa’s example, the help of Father Flanagan’s Bible preaching, and some friends, Charlie discovers some valuable truths. From the leprechaun’s curse, Charlie sees how vanity can be hidden deep inside. With that insight, he learns what true friendship is all about. As he starts to believe the priest about the Bible, he realizes that although you might know someone all your life, you may not really know them at all. His greatest revelation is that the verses in the Bible are applicable to everyday life. Through reading it, he learns that what seems evil, God can turn into good. Charlie McGee and the Leprechaun is an allegory in that it reveals the spiritual journey of a young lad to discover through his dilemma the truths of the Bible.

Charles M. Schulz's Peanuts comic strip franchise, the most successful of all time, forever changed the industry. For more than half a century, the endearing, witty insights brought to life by Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Linus, and Lucy have caused newspaper readers and television viewers across the globe to laugh, sigh, gasp, and ponder. A Charlie Brown Religion explores one of the most provocative topics Schulz broached in his heartwarming work--religion. Based on new archival research and original interviews with Schulz's family, friends, and colleagues, author Stephen J. Lind offers a new spiritual biography of the life and work of the great comic strip artist. In his lifetime, aficionados and detractors both labeled Schulz as a fundamentalist Christian or as an atheist. Yet his deeply personal views on faith have eluded journalists and biographers for decades. Previously unpublished writings from Schulz will move fans as they begin to see the nuances of the humorist's own complex, intense journey toward understanding God and faith. "There are three things that I've learned never to discuss with people," Linus says, "Religion, politics, and the Great Pumpkin." Yet with the support of religious communities, Schulz bravely defied convention and dared to express spiritual thought in the "funny pages," a secular, mainstream entertainment medium. This insightful, thorough study of the 17,897 Peanuts newspaper strips, seventy-five animated titles, and global merchandising empire will delight and intrigue as Schulz considers what it means to believe, what it means to doubt, and what it means to share faith with the world.
