It is called \"It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown,\" and it first played on TV in 1966. In it, a boy named Charlie Brown and his friends put on costumes and go out on Halloween night.  \nWhile his friends collect treats, one boy named Linus does something silly instead. He sits all night in a pumpkin patch, waiting for a make-believe hero called the Great Pumpkin to fly by. A pumpkin patch is a field where big orange pumpkins grow on the ground.  \nThat funny, hopeful boy came from the mind of a man named Charles Schulz, who drew the Peanuts comic. Back then, artists made the show by hand, drawing the characters over and over on clear sheets so they seemed to move. A musician named Vince Guaraldi added happy piano songs that made the show feel warm and fun.  \nThose catchy tunes are one reason families still love to watch it every October. Kids today can see the very same show their parents and grandparents saw as children.
