One look at the new Calvin and Hobbes collection and it is immediately evident that Bill Watterson's imagination, wit, and sense of adventure continue to be unmatched. In this collection, comprised of cartoons never before published in book form, Calvin and his tiger-striped sidekick Hobbes are hilarious whether the two are simply lounging around philosophizing about the future of mankind or plotting their latest money-making scheme. Chock-full of the familiar adventures of Spaceman Spiff, the latest findings of Dad's popularity poll, and time travel to the Jurrassic Age, Scientific Progress Goes "Boink" is guaranteed to set scientific inquiry back an ean - and advance the reading pleasure of all Calvin and Hobbes fans. 3007345 1 1 1991 Scientific Progress Goes "Boink" (Calvin and Hobbes) total:2666|5:1919|4:584|3:145|2:14|1:4| 2666 12398 2975 53 5 1 false false Mon Oct 01 22:35:49 -0700 2007 Mon Oct 01 22:42:13 -0700 2007 always good for a laugh when you're down. But the thing that I love most about Bill Watterson's work is that he has the ability to make you laugh and (in the middle of great big belly laughs) he can "make you go hmmm". Hilarious and thoughtful.]]> 5 0 false false Thu Jul 30 20:16:20 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 30 20:16:32 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 29 05:55:27 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 29 05:56:39 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Sun Sep 27 09:57:07 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 03 14:16:54 -0700 2009 Collects some great stories concerning the wonders of science that can be accomplished with only a cardboard box.
