Collection: Comics & Graphic Novels

The first book collection of the classic and beloved Calvin and Hobbes comic strip!

"Most people who write comic dialogue for minors demonstrate surprisingly little feel for--or faith in--the original source material, that is, childhood, in all its unfettered and winsome glory. It is in this respect that Bill Watterson has proved as unusual as his feckless creations, Calvin and Hobbes. Watterson is the reporter who's gotten it right; childhood as it actually is."--Garry Trudeau, from the Foreword

This is the first collection of the classic comic strip that features Calvin, a rambunctious 6-year-old boy, and his stuffed tiger, Hobbes, who comes charmingly to life. Filled with a mix of Watterson's standard and full-page Sunday strips, this collection is sure to please fans and newcomers alike.

Read along to save the day with Spider-Man! Press buttons to hear Spidey read the whole story aloud. Simple sentences, large type, and expressive narration make it easy for beginning readers to follow along!

In Vol. 1 of the internationally acclaimed comics collection The Complete Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck, Don Rosa tells the tale of how Uncle Scrooge earned his fortune. In Volume 2, he still has more secrets to tell from Scrooge's legendary life -- including a rollicking Yukon adventure involving Glittering Goldie (that might just break your heart!). Fantagraphics proudly presents, in a handsome hardcover, the fan-favorite Scrooge McDuck life story as it's never been told before -- in chronological order -- with "in-between" untold tales.

Two feathered friends are Frog and Toad for the emoji generation in this delightful graphic novel series for emerging readers.

Owl wants to play catch. But Penguin wants to play tennis! Which should they play?

Sometimes best friends disagree. Though Owl and Penguin are opposites, they like to solve their conflicts with creative play. From conquering fears to flying a runaway kite, there's nothing these pals can't get through together.

In five nearly wordless stories, expressive art leads the storytelling, supplemented by simple text captions and emoticon-style images in speech bubbles. This innovative format supports visual literacy and sight word recognition for the earliest independent readers. With warm humor and a joyful palette, it's perfect for kids to giggle over on their own.

I Like to Read(R) Comics are perfect for kids who are challenged by or unengaged in reading, kids who love art, and the growing number of young comics fans. Filled with eye-catching art, humor, and terrific stories, these comics provide unique reading experiences for growing minds. Like their award-winning I Like to Read(R) counterparts, these books are created by celebrated artists and support reading comprehension to transform children into lifelong readers.
