It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown is the fifteenth animated TV special based on the Peanuts comic strip by Charles M. Schulz. It first aired on NBC on March 16, 1976. It is the first animated cartoon in which Rerun van Pelt appears.

PlotEdit

To celebrate Arbor Day, everbody works together to plant a garden. Unfortunately, the garden is located in Charlie Brown's baseball field, and he has a game with Peppermint Patty's team approaching. However, Charlie Brown works to make the best of the situation by attaching baseball gloves to the trees as well as caps (to make them look like scarecrows), which results in Peppermint Patty's team being unable to score due to the large number of fly outs from the balls being hit into the gloves. Schroeder says he will kiss Lucy if she hits a home run, which he figures she will not. However, Charlie Brown is happy to see that Lucy indeed hits a home run and scores the only run in the game. The game is cut short by rain, and although Charlie Brown expresses agony that "We were Winning!", he accepts it as a de facto victory and one of the few times his baseball team has won a game.
