Synopsis "Calvin and Hobbes"

The first book collection of the classic and beloved Calvin and Hobbes comic strip! "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 unusual 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 This is the first collection of the classic comic strip that features Calvin, a rambunctious 6-year-old boy, and his stuffed tiger, Hobbes, who comes charmingly to life. Filled with a mix of Watterson's standard and full-page Sunday strips, this collection is sure to please fans and newcomers alike.

Bill Watterson (Washington D.C., 5 de julio de 1958) es el creador de Calvin y Hobbes, una de las tiras cómicas más populares y apreciadas del siglo XX. Watterson dibujó la tira desde su debut, el 18 de noviembre de 1985, hasta el 31 de diciembre de 1995. En 1986, Watterson se convirtió en la persona más joven en ganar el prestigioso premio Reuben al "dibujante más destacado del año" de la National Cartoonists Society. Volvió a ganar el premio en 1988, y también fue nominado para el premio en 1992.
