Covering the years from 1985-1995 - This entertaining book contains 36 cartoons (colour/b&w) from the ever-popular "Calvin and Hobbes". These cartoons were personally selected by its author, Bill Watterson. For anyone who's not at all familiar with the "Calvin and Hobbes" comic strip - Here's a brief outline of what one can expect to see in this volume.... This cartoon follows the often-humorous adventures (both real and fantasized) of Calvin, a precocious, mischievous and very outspoken 6-year-old rugrat, and his sardonic, stuffed tiger, Hobbes. Together these 2 rascals (especially Calvin) get themselves into all sorts of comical predicaments that cover such broad issues as public education, philosophical quandaries, environmentalism, and flaws of opinion polls (to name but a few). At the height of its popularity - "Calvin and Hobbes" was featured in over 2400 newspapers, worldwide. (*Watch brief "Calvin & Hobbes" documentary*)
