Peanuts books in the UK were published by a number of publishers over the years, notably Knight, Coronet and Ravette.

Coronet started issuing Peanuts books in 1967 as reprints of the US books published by Fawcett (which in themselves were extracts from a previous issue of books - see Originals and Peanuts Parade Galleries). There were 89 Coronet Peanuts books, and strangely, unlike BC and Wizard of Id, only got the numbering wrong twice! No 42 was issued with '41' on the spine, so that it appeared that there were two No 41s and no No 42, and the title "It's For You Snoopy" was issued as both No 27 and No 28 (with No 27 having a lilac cover) but the correct number was No 28.

I have made a comparison gallery between the US Fawcett and the UK Coronet Editions HERE.

The Ravette books started in 1988 as a series called "Snoopy Stars" of which there were 21. After a gap of 10 years, Ravette started a series called "Snoopy Features" for 16 books, some of which were reprints of the "Snoopy Stars" books, mixed in with a few new titles and some re-titled books.

Knight
The unusual feature of these books is that the spine of the book is at the top and the contents are all landscape. The first two books in 1969 and 1970 had an appropriate cover to match the layout within, but subsequent books, including the 1970 and 1971 reprints of the first 2 books, did not. Unusually, the advert on the last page promoted further Peanuts Books from Coronet !
