Introduction
Based on the beloved Peanuts cartoon strip, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown is based on an average day in the life of everyman, character Charlie Brown, consisting of small moments picked from a range of situations in his life, from Valentine's Day to the baseball season, from wild optimism to utter despair, all mixed in with the lives of his friends (both human and non-human) and strung together through the course of a single day, from bright uncertain morning to hopeful starlit evening.
