The first book collection of the classic and beloved Calvin and Hobbes comic strip!

can't go wrong!
Really, you can't go wrong with Calvin and hobbes! My kids are just thrilled that I bought 7 different books so everyone can look at them at the same time. Yes, I know I put this review on the other books too, but it's true.

Nothing better
Who doesn't enjoy Calvin and Hobbs? His imagination sparks such unusual plot lines much to his parents fraustration. This witty and clever comic is an absolute joy to read. Calvin and Hobbs are best buds, they play, fight, and try to outwit the evil baby sitter. Their childish antics always bring out a smile.
