Notes: "Project Linus seemingly started overnight when Karen Loucks spotted a Parade magazine article entiled, "Joy to the World." From those words and images, a grassroots movement was born. In working for Peanuts, you'll hear the incredible tale of how a small-town Colorado woman set out to offer love and security, through the gifting of handmade security blankets, beginning in her own backyard of Denver. Within just a few short months, Project Linus received national attention and an incredible journey was embarked upon. Hundreds of chapters formed, thousands of volunteers, aka Blanketeers, assisted and millions of children were comforted around the world. Project Linus has been featured on "Oprah", "The Today Show", "NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams", "Simply Quilts", "The Rosie O'Donnell Show" and highlighted in Parade, People, Family Circle, Reader's Digest and many more magazines, newspapers and television shows"--Page 4 of cover.
