Summary

In the world that Calvin and his tiger Hobbes share, treasures can be found in the most unlikely places, from the outer regions where Spaceman spiff travels to the rocks in the backyard--this curious duo roams their world in search of fortunes (and misfortunes!) to be experienced. Whether Calvin and Hobbes are blasting off on another interplanetary adventure or approaching warp speed on a downhill wagon ride, their capers are repartee consistently charm and refresh their readers' days. On his own, Calvin is prey to the insidious killer bicycle, is the arbiter of the dad poll, is the creator of a legion of snowmen who provide an incisive social commentary, and Hobbes is always there as the perfect companion. Watterson's talent is evidenced by the range of thought provoking emotions the strip encompasses in addition to the laughs it induces: the loyalty and friendship between Calvin and Hobbes, the challenge of being a patient parents, and the sardonic viewpoint of a cynical six-year-old ("I'm a 21st-century kid trapped in a 19th-century family," laments Calvin) combine to make this one of the best-loved strips in cartoon history.

From the publisher

Adventure and wonder abound as Calvin transforms ordinary life into extraordinary experiences, from treasure hunts to backyard experiments, snowball fights, and inquisitive conversation with Hobbes.

In There's Treasure Everywhere, Calvin and Hobbes experience life as one big adventure. Spanning August 30, 1993, to April 8, 1995, this collection bursts with backyard treasure hunts, cardboard-box inventions, mutant snowmen, and snowball skirmishes. Calvin's escalating rivalry--and reluctant friendship--with Susie delivers plenty of mischief, while Hobbes offers warmth, dry wit, and thoughtful perspective amid the chaos.

Watterson's strips weave clever humor with moments of poignancy, proving that adventure thrives in the everyday. Imaginative transformations, biting satire of consumer culture, and spectacularly failed schemes all highlight Calvin's boundless creativity. Through outdoor escapades, whimsical daydreams, and endlessly inventive games, Calvin and Hobbes capture both the comedy and wonder of childhood, making this treasury as insightful as it is timeless.

Highlights:

  • Backyard treasure-hunting adventures blending fantasy and reality
  • Expanded Susie prank wars and playful rivalry
  • Cardboard-box inventions with new twists
  • Philosophizing under the stars with Hobbes
  • Humorous commentary on consumerism and "get rich quick" schemes
  • Everyday adventures transformed into epic stories
  • Captures the enduring bond of Calvin and Hobbes
  • Both color and black and white strips
