The Calvin And Hobbes Portable Compendium Books 5-6

What’s compact, contains two volumes and is shrink-wrapped in a slipcase? It’s The Calvin And Hobbes Portable Compendium Books 5-6 by Bill Watterson and released by AndrewsMcMeel Publishing.

Once again the mischievous little boy Calvin and his imaginary pet tiger Hobbes bedazzle, confuse, confound and befuddle Calvin’s parents, other adults and kids.

Sold as a set the Compendium contains the daily and Sunday comic strips of Calvin And Hobbes dated July 1988 to November 1989.

Produced for only ten years Calvin And Hobbes captured the imagination of the public with its insightful musing about life, growing up, imagination and humor.

As popular as the day it was first introduced the strip is more than a humor strip. It’s a reflection of life as seen through the eyes of a young child. 

All the wonder, pain, sorrow, laughter, challenges and daily happenings are wonderfully captured via the perspective of a mischievous child.

The Compendium collection is a wonderful way to inexpensively compile a Calvin And Hobbes collection in a neat compact form.

Psalms 40:4 - Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
