Heartwarming / It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

• Snoopy helping Charlie Brown rake the leaves, and their shared irritation with Linus when he ruins the leaf pile.
• Charlie Brown narrating Snoopy's World War I Flying Ace sequence, which demonstrates that he does show occasional interest in (or at least indulgence of) his dog's flights of fancy.
• Lucy getting up late at night and going out to retrieve Linus from the pumpkin patch, then tucking him into bed.
  • Even better, she set an alarm to wake her up. She knew he'd be out there, and made sure she'd be up to get him out of the cold.
  • She also asks for extra candy while trick-or-treating so that he won't wind up completely empty-handed.
• Charlie Brown ends up getting invited to the Halloween party, even though Lucy dismisses it as a fluke by saying that he was going to be snubbed to the "do not invite" list.
• Somewhat of a Real Life example: After the special first aired, children from all over the world sent bags of candy to Charlie Brown out of sympathy, which proves that not all kids are cruel.
