Calvin and Hobbes

by Bill Watterson

Overview

"Most people who write comic dialogue for minors demonstrate surprisingly little feel for - or faith in - the original source material, that is, childhood, in all its unfettered and winsome glory. It is in this respect that Bill Watterson has proved as unsusal as his feckless creations, Calvin and Hobbes. Watterson is the reporter who's gotten it right; childhood as it actually is." - Garry Trudeau, from the Foreword
