"Oh yea... the rarest C&H piece of merchandise is a book called 'Teaching with Calvin & Hobbes' - don't expect to run out and buy this book for $19.95..."

"Calvin and Hobbes. What can I say?
My daughter read every book she could get her hands on. They are the first books that my son showed any interest in reading.... We have a bunch of them, I thought we had them all.
I had no idea that they were worth anything, I'll have to see if we have the teaching one."

"Q. What is the most expensive official Calvin and Hobbes book?

"A. Teaching with Calvin and Hobbes...

"A children's school textbook – this is the only officially licensed book ever produced. It used the comic strips to cover topics like vocabulary, comprehension, behaviour and humour and creative writing. This book is no longer in print – you can only buy it second hand, and the price keeps on rising!"
