Schulz's wife Jeannie attended the launch ceremony, saying that the selected Chinese edition is a great commemoration of the birth of Peanuts 60 years ago, as in China there are a lot of fans of both the strip and main character Snoopy.

American cartoonist Charles Schulz spent a large part of his life creating Peanuts, which continues to be read by millions across the globe with Snoopy among one of the most recognizable comic characters in the world.
