The Best Hägar the Horrible probably is the best of the cartoons done by Dik Browne. This strip has been one of my favourites as far as cartoon features in newspapers go. I was first alerted to the cartoons by my dad who has been a long term fan and who would always patiently explain the ones I didn't understand as a child. Although Dik Browne has passed on, we can still enjoy Hägar's antics thanks to Dik's son, Chris Browne. This book contains only the strips done by Dik. One of my friends once commented to me that you don't often see Hägar without his horned helmet, and that is true. So here are a couple of him minus his helmet.
This blog contains reviews and comments on children's books which I own, have read, and would like to share. I look for books at markets and opportunity shops. They are cleaned up, covered and read. Then I take them to the classroom for students to read. Students can borrow the books at any time. Many books are also from my personal library, especially the Youth Fiction. Students can preview some of them on this blog. Now, I am also on the lookout for great new releases for my grandson Archie.
