Summary: Some of the best strips
Review: There's no reason to explain WHY Calvin and Hobbes is an excellent comic, but I'd like to explain why this book features some of the best C&H strips of all time.
When I think back at when I was 6 years old, some of my best memories are those from the summer and winter: When I played in either the hot sun or the cold snow, this is why I came to love Calvin's philosophical conversations with Hobbes when, in the summer, riding down the hill in his trolley and his grotesque but also fantastic creations in the snow(Dinosaurs, monsters etc.) They make me reflect on my own childhood and make me laugh, and after reading a few pages one easily becomes nostalgic.
Almost all of the strips in this book take place either in the summer or the winter, and there are many funny conversations with Hobbes and good drawings of Calvin's hideous snowmen in this book. It's one of my favourite C&H books, and if you haven't bought it yet I suggest you get it soon.
It's so good, you can't afford not to buy it.

Summary: gas pedal for a foot locker kicks off
Review: i used to think that "the days are just packed" was the best C&H book but when i bought this one,i knew that it was the best."attack of the deranged muntant killer monster snow goons" has some of the most funny comics i have ever read. this book contains:the attack of the snow goons,the 'calvin show',calvin's late school project,and the "noodle incident".this is clearly the best. my favorite part in this book was the 'calvin show' where he cut some cardboard up and put his face in it and his dad said he'd prefer the tv with the volume control. yeah. that was hilarious.

Summary: Great!
Review: Calvin and Hobbes is the story of a six-year-old boy and his stuffed tiger. Though Hobbes appears as a stuffed animal to everyone else, to Calvin he is a real-life friend, playmate, and sometimes competitor. This is the story of a boy with an out of control imagination that inevitably leads to trouble...and hilarity.

I must admit that I was a huge fan of Calvin and Hobbes, and I was crushed when Bill Watterson (b.1958) retired in 1995. But, I have never forgotten C&H, and now that my son is eleven, I decided that he needed to be introduced to them as well. So, I got him this wonderful 1992 book of C&H comics. And now, he is also a big fan of Calvin and Hobbes! We both love the amazing use of snowmen, Spaceman Spiff, and (one I didn't remember) Tracer Bullet, private eye.

Yep, this is a great Calvin & Hobbes book, with lots of really funny cartoons. My son and I both love this book, and highly recommend it to you!

Summary: I CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF CALVIN & HOBBES
Review: Look,,,there's no two ways about it...Calvin & Hobbes is the best comic strip ever! Period! End of story! It was a dark and sad day when Creator Bill Watterson ended the strip, but fortunately, the strip lives on through the continued collection of the strips into these wonderful books.

Attack Of The Deranged Mutant Killer Monster Snow Goons is as good as it comes with all of the charm, sarcasm, and bust-a-gut hillarity you've come to expect from this mis-matched pair of friends.

I've always enjoyed Calvins Christmas and winter strips the best so this collection is one of my favorites. I continue to read it over and over again.

Summary: Great bedtime stories
Review: I've been teaching my son to read English through Calvin and Hobbes books. I've been surprised how much of it is written with an adult in mind. We have drawn much amusement from these books. The Snow Goons isn't quite as rewarding as other C&H collections, but is enjoyable nonetheless. This is more a weekly format with black and white strip cartoons. None of the Sunday spreads are contained within this collection, where one really saw Watterson show off his stunning imagination. However, it is very much worth adding to the archives, especially for bedtime stories.
