The Authoritative Calvin And Hobbes is a collection of the best known comic strips starring the imaginative young boy and his stuffed tiger. Summary of the Book School's a pain, and so is homework. No one knows that better than Calvin, who tries to knock some sense into the world of adults and their boring humdrum with his adventures. He is joined by Hobbes, his loyal stuffed tiger, although sometimes Calvin himself wonders if wild tigers can be loyal. They seem to be crazy too, because they like the oddest of things. Watterson's strip talks about everything from politics, to science and his allegorical strips have risen to the top of the comic strips world. There's always fun to be had with Calvin and Hobbes. This collection brings together Yukon Ho! and Weirdos from Another Planet and some never-before-seen strips.
