Snoopy

The world's most famous beagle

Charlie Brown's pet beagle, but with the imagination of a novelist and the swagger of a WWI flying ace. Snoopy spends his days napping on top of his red doghouse, typing the Great American Novel and dreaming up new alter-egos — Joe Cool, the World Famous Flying Ace, the Literary Ace. Equal parts cute and philosophical, he is the spiritual mascot of cozy Peanuts wallpapers everywhere.

Charlie Brown

Good ol' Charlie Brown

The lovably anxious boy in the zig-zag yellow shirt and the everyman heart of Peanuts. Charlie Brown owns Snoopy, manages the worst baseball team in town, and never gives up on kicking that football — even when Lucy pulls it away every single time. His quiet optimism in the face of constant losses is exactly why Peanuts fans have loved him for over 70 years.

Woodstock

Snoopy's tiny yellow sidekick

A small yellow bird, a chaotic flier, and Snoopy's best friend in the whole world. Woodstock speaks only in scribbles — a series of vertical chirps — yet somehow Snoopy understands every word. Whether he's playing secretary outside the doghouse or leading his bird scouts on hiking trips, Woodstock brings pure joy to every Snoopy and Woodstock wallpaper.

Lucy van Pelt

The 5¢ psychiatrist

Bossy, brilliant and never afraid to speak her mind, Lucy runs the gang's makeshift psychiatry booth for the bargain price of 5 cents. She is famous for two things: giving Charlie Brown advice he didn't ask for, and yanking that football away at the last possible moment. Underneath the snark, though, she carries a soft spot for her piano-playing crush Schroeder.

Linus van Pelt

The philosopher with a blanket

Charlie Brown's best friend, Lucy's younger brother, and the most thoughtful kid in the neighborhood. Linus carries his trademark blue security blanket everywhere and is just as likely to quote scripture as he is to wait all night in a pumpkin patch for the Great Pumpkin. His blend of innocent faith and grown-up wisdom makes him a Peanuts fan favorite.

Sally Brown

Charlie Brown's little sister

Charlie Brown's younger sister and Linus's self-proclaimed "Sweet Babboo" — much to Linus's exasperation. Sally is dramatic, blunt and beautifully literal: she famously argues her way out of homework with airtight (and totally wrong) logic. Her catchphrase "Why me?" sums up the everyday absurdity that makes Peanuts so timeless.

Schroeder

The pint-sized Beethoven prodigy

A musical prodigy who pounds out Beethoven on his tiny toy piano like it's a Steinway grand. Schroeder is also the long-suffering catcher on Charlie Brown's baseball team and the (very) reluctant object of Lucy's affection. He cares about exactly two things: classical music and being left alone to play it.

Peppermint Patty

Sandal-wearing softball star

Confident, athletic and forever falling asleep in class, Peppermint Patty calls Charlie Brown "Chuck" and never quite figures out that Snoopy isn't actually a "funny-looking kid with a big nose." She lives for softball, hates school, and brings outsider energy to the otherwise tidy Peanuts neighborhood.

About the Peanuts Universe

Peanuts is the legendary comic strip created by American cartoonist Charles M. Schulz, syndicated from October 2, 1950 to February 13, 2000. With nearly 18,000 strips published, it became one of the most influential and widely read comics in history — read daily in more than 75 countries and 21 languages.

At its heart, Peanuts follows a group of suburban kids and one extraordinary beagle. Through quiet jokes, baseball losses, classroom musings and rooftop daydreams, Schulz captured something universal about loneliness, friendship and quiet optimism — which is exactly why a Snoopy wallpaper still feels like a hug on your home screen today.
