Linus van Pelt

Character

Description

Linus van Pelt is Charlie Brown's closest friend and Lucy's younger brother in Charles M. Schulz's Peanuts. Deeply philosophical and unusually intelligent for his age, he is almost always shown carrying his blue security blanket, a prop so identified with him that it gave the phrase 'security blanket' to the English language. He first appeared in the strip in September 1952.
