My daughter discovered Calvin and Hobbs books many years ago and introduced me to them. I just re-read then and chuckled right through! This artist is delightful in his observations of human nature, beastly little boys and figures of authority from a child’s point of view. Many men secretly live in a world of imagination until they are about 30 I think! Too cute!
One lives in hopes that boys will eventually grow up to be adult men, but as our 50-year old friend says, they enjoy staying boys.
I read something cute: A mother protects and nurtures her children, but fathers teach them a sense of adventure.
I think Calvin’s dad is slightly dumb actually. The things he teaches that poor confused kid! No wonder he is impossible! Poor little boy!
