The namesake of the "Something Under the Bed Is Drooling" comic book.
The title of the book comes from a single Sunday strip in which Calvin tricks the monsters under his bed into drooling hungrily, thus revealing them. This comic is the first one featured in the book.
Something Under the Bed is Drooling includes a foreword by political cartoonist Pat Oliphant.
