All pages fell out

My son loves Where’s Waldo and was excited to get this book. We order a book in good condition but when we received it and opened it up all the pages fell out.

Written in and ruined

All the things you are supposed to find were circled by the previous owners. I wouldn’t consider the condition of this book “good” at all.

A little disappointed.....

I was so happy to receive this book! But once I opened it, I realized that multiple pages had been detached and stuck back in the book. I ordered a book in very good shape, but what I received was definitely not that.

Where' Waldo a fun and captivating search book!

Today I found my first-edition "Where's Waldo" book. As I was looking through it and reading the captions that Waldo says throughout the book, it brought bck wonderful memories of my childhood. My mom got me the first Waldo book when it first came out in 1987. She saw how much I enjoyed the book, and that I was really pouring over the pages looking for the elusive traveler, and his items in each scene, that she bought the second Where's Waldo book "Where's Waldo Now" the following year. I loved that book right away, too! The differences between the first and second edition of Where's Waldo is somewhat numerous. First off Waldo's appearance is better drawn than he was on and in the first edition, his position has changed in each scene, new characters have been added, some of the words and things to search for have been cut-out or altered. It took me awhile to get use to the changes, but after awhile I have grown to love the updated second edition of Where's Waldo book, just as much as the first edition. The first scene you have to spot Waldo and the newly added characters and items in is "In Town" where you find a "Happy Barber"(in the first edition he is called a "Keen Barber.") who is cutting men's heads bald,a man with goggles and a snorkel on a fountain, a man coming out of a man-hole, a waiter who isn't paying attention and so much more. From there you go to the beach which has an overdressed man wearing a winter time outfit, a cowboy, a human being stepped on, a boy who isn't allowed any ice-cream and so much more. There are several more places that Waldo explores, so go ahead and purchase this and see if you can find him there. This book and all the rest of the Waldo books will keep you hooked and looking for him hours on end. You will become a Waldo fanatic like I have been these pass twenty-three years.

love waldo

Who doesn't love these books? We love Waldo! Entertaining, not super easy like some seek and find books. Perfect for my 7 year old and I.

Perfect for Non-English Speaking Children

I live outside the USA and have many families who visit in our home. The Where's Waldo books have been the perfect thing to give to restless children. They quickly take up the challenge of finding that little man! For some, it is their first exposure to books for fun or pleasure. I am ready to order my second set!

Excellent exercises for your brain and visual acuity

I just spent approximately 30 minutes working my way through this book, finding Waldo in each of his 12 locations. This is an example of good clean fun and an excellent check of your visual acuity and spatial sense. I also noticed that in the later scenes, Waldo starts to lose some of his possessions. In the last scene, he no longer has his cap, cane, cup and other tools. It has been proven in several different ways that the mind is like any other physical muscle, if it is challenged, it stays strong. Given those conditions, the searches needed to find Waldo that are in this book qualify as exercises to sharpen your brain.

Where's Waldo

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.
