And now it’s time for Manic Mystery Monday so pop your thinking caps on and teachers dial 1420 when you have heard the entire question and your class has an answer:
Question: In “It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown.”, who does Linus mistake for the Great Pumpkin?
Answer: Snoopy.
Class: Grandstaff.
Note: Linus faints after seeing a shadowy figure rise in the pumpkin patch, thinking that it’s the Great Pumpkin. But it was only Snoopy, which makes Sally furious at Linus for making her miss out on all the Halloween fun to wait in the pumpkin patch.
Have a marvelous Monday everybody!
