Item Description
8-3/8x10.75" softcover w/200 pages. Written by Mary Santella-Johnson and Linda Holmen, a speech/language pathologist and a learning disabilities educator, "Teaching With Calvin And Hobbes" is a language textbook for elementary and intermediate-level students published in 1993 by Playground Publishing. Book reprints 57 "Calvin And Hobbes" comic strips by Bill Watterson. Owing to Watterson's principled refusal to license his comic strip for merchandise a license was only granted to the authors of this book after they personally communicated to Watterson the success they had using his comic strip to teach children w/learning disabilities. Unused and Exc. Published in a limited print run of just 2,500, only around 20 copies still exist, making this publication a very rare and highly sought-after book. Perhaps the most difficult piece of official "Calvin And Hobbes" memorabilia to find, recorded sales have been as high as $10,000.
