Now, if only we can keep our nephew-- a real Calvin in the making-- from reading the books until he gets old enough. :-)

Why would you want to do that? Calvin and Hobbes is the best reading primer a child could have. There's no inappropriate content--although some of Calvin's schemes might give little gremlins a few ideas!

My ten-year-old loves Calvin and Hobbes. She does her best to keep Sam's residuals coming too.

It's the idea-giving that's the rub. There are strips like the one where Calvin is pounding nails into a coffee table and the Mom comes up and says, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!?!?" and Calvin says, "Is this a trick question?"

Funny, but I think his mom would kill me if I gave some C&H to him ;-).
