Find Waldo Now

Book is missing pages. The pages it does have are all ripped.

All pages are marked with ink. What’s the point… total waste time of $ and time

Each picture had all the things circled. I was extremely disappointed.

My kids love these books

My four-year-old son loves Waldo, and we've had a lot of fun looking through this book EVERY night since he got it. It's his favorite book. There's so much to look for, more than just Waldo and his stuff -- there's Wenda, Wizard Whitebeard, Odlaw, Woof and all their props, as well as 25 Waldo Watchers scattered throughout the book. From an adult perspective, the postcards aren't as much fun to read out loud, but overall I love sharing the book with my children.

Always a great book - baught the original when my children were young for road trips - I baught this reissue for my 22yr old son to take to Iraq the original was worn out. Had to sneak a peak thou and all five of us spent hours together like we did so many years ago.

If you haven't met Waldo before, he's a funny-looking cartoon fellow who appears amid busy scenes filled with other characters and objects. Although he's always out in the open and quite distinctive, finding him takes some careful looking. The new edition of Where's Waldo Now? has a great feature. Waldo has been moved in each illustration from the first edition of this book! So if you loved these illustrations before, here's your chance to enjoy them all over again.The scenes start with cave man days, and move on to ancient Egypt, ancient Rome, Viking voyages, the Crusades, the Middle Ages in Europe, Aztecs, 1600 in Japan, 1750 as a pirate, 1900 at a Paris ball, the Gold Rush, and also a future look at a space colony. Although finding Waldo is challenging enough, this fascinating volume is filled with dozens of other people and objects to seek. There are 25 Waldo watchers, each one of whom is unique to an illustration. You also get Wenda, the Wizard Whitebeard, and Odlaw in each illustration. In addition, there's a mystery character in each illustration whom you need to find on your own. (There's a clue at the end of the book if you can't figure it out.) Woof the dog appears just as a tail in each illustration. You also have Woof's bone, Wenda's camera, Wizard Whitebeard's scroll, and Odlaw's binoculars in each illustration. At the end of the book are lists of a dozen or so characters and objects to find in each specific illustration.If you haven't seen this book before, the illustrations are done across a two-page spread filled from the edges of both pages in both directions. The characters and objects are very small. You can profitably use a magnifying glass if you have trouble seeing small things. Bright light is a must! As always, the details are filled with lots of humorous situations that will keep you amused as you search for your goals. This tininess is a plus for youngsters. The objects and characters seem like they are youngster size in each case!You can also use the illustrations to teach a little world history to your youngsters. Basically, this book can provide dozens of hours of laughter and shared fun. You can obviously set up your own searches in addition to the suggested ones. After you finish seeing how hard it is to find a needle in a haystack that is out in the open, you should think about where else the object of your searches is hard to find. How about locating loyal, considerate friends whom you enjoy? Or a great job? Or an exciting hobby? Or a life-improving book? Look for the best . . . all around you!

This book is for kids, but for my (adult) is it funny too. I collect them, becaus it is funny and the pictures are fantastic.
