Zach Smith, a Guest Contributor over at the NEWSARAMA Comic Book News Website, recently conducted an extensive interview with the Book Designer (and Author) Chip Kidd about his latest book, “Only What’s Necessary: Charles M. Schulz and the Art of Peanuts” (Abrams). They get pretty deep about the creation of this book and the importance of Charles M. Schulz and the wonderful Peanuts characters that he drew for 50 years. Here’s a LINK to check it and please do because Zach asked some pretty good questions.

WOW! It looks like Maria Popova has done it again!
