He wrote a letter to the Walt Disney Students after graduating high School. The studio asked him to draw some cartoons on a certain subiect. Sparky spent a lot of time on the cartoons. Finally,the reply came from Disney Studios:they didn't like his cartoons.
Was it time to stop drawing? Sparky didn't think so. He started to put his own life in the cartoons. He created his childhood self- a little- boy loser:Charlie Brown. He wasn't good at football. But Charlie Brown would soon become famous worldwide. Sparky,the boy who used to fail school and who was rejected again and again,was Charles Schulz. He created the Peanuts comic strip and the world-famous cartoon characters Charlie Brown and Snoopy.
