Calvin’s babysitter showdown

This sixth Calvin and Hobbes collection gathers strips from December 1988 to September 1989, with Calvin’s clashes with babysitter Rosalyn as a recurring thread. The volume also ranges across schoolyard rivalries with Susie Derkins, household chores, snowmen, and Calvin’s imaginative ventures—from cardboard-box inventions to dinosaur daydreams and Calvinball. Black-and-white daily strips sit alongside full-color Sunday pages, bringing together domestic mischief and flights of make-believe. The collection’s humor is grounded in the friction between Calvin’s unruly schemes and the everyday limits imposed by school and home.
