*The first printing of this book, which was the first Parade book to be issued, does not include the Peanuts Parade identifier nor the number. Weekly Reader culled two books from the material in Speak Softly; between the two of them, they do not collect the whole book. Speak Softly and Carry a Beagle (abridged from the Parade book for Weekly Reader) * (HB-WR) ; if someone offers to sell you a hardcover of Speak Softly, this is probably what you'll be getting, a small and shortened version. Thanks For Nothing, Snoopy (selections from Speak Softly And Carry A Beagle; a Weekly Reader original) * (HB--WR)
