I am getting into it again, though I do find the tomes a bit weighty - hardcover, and about 450 pages apiece. More fans!

I'm a fan from waaay back and when I introduced C&H to my husband to it he bought every book he could get his hands on. The kids took it up from there. Excellent language learning tool and hilarious to boot. Ahh, we LOVE Calvin and Hobbes, in fact we almost named on of our boys Calvin, but decided against at the last minute.

I remember that C&H taught me "dysfunctional" and "manifest destiny."

As soon as we'd won the auction she came over with a wad of five- and 10-euro bills and paid me for it. :-) BTW, it also comes with an extensive forward Watterson, his life and career. If you're a fan, you won't regret it. bb - or at least a hamburger-munching philanthropist. ;-) az, I didn’t buy it for her!

I'm also a C&H fan - don't know what I'd do without the daily cartoon that appears on my Netvibes page. I've been eyeballing that complete set on Amazon for years (no, Nog has never taken the hint!) so all I can say is that if I were 11 I'd love for you to be my dad! :) This is just so adorable.
