About the Author

Martin Handford, the man behind the mind-boggling Waldo books, began his career as a freelance illustrator specializing in drawing crowd scenes. "I can’t tell you how pleased I am that Waldo has taken on a life of his own," he says. "I’d like to inspire children to open their minds to explore subjects more, to be aware of what’s going on around them. I’d like them to see wonder in places that may not have occurred to them." Martin Handford lives in England.

Editorial Reviews

The maniacal amount of activity present in Waldo's Hollywood jaunt is alternately daunting and dazzling. Waldo and friends meander through sets of movie spectaculars . . . Moviemakers, actors, tourists, and spectators [take] part in what appears to be cleverly staged mayhem. Younger Waldo fans will be successfully entertained; older ones will appreciate the sly humor of the 'caught in the act' illustrations.

From the Publisher

That elusive, red-and-white-hatted character hides his way through Tinsel Town in a whopping, oversize book sure keep kids guessing! Measuring 16-1/2" tall by over 13" wide, this enormous Waldo adventure challenges fans to spot him in various Hollywood movie sets, including a black-and-white silent movie, a gladiator epic, and a wild western. Of course, there are plenty of look-alikes to throw off the search, and the book provides a key to the impostors, along with more items to search for and movie poster scenes to study. Making its grand finale with an unbelievable "Where's Waldo? The Musical" spread -- which includes hundreds of almost-Waldo extras -- and a back-of-the-book, by-the-scene checklist, this star-studded spectacular gets the award for most fabulous Waldo book ever.

The maniacal amount of activity present in Waldo's Hollywood jaunt is alternately daunting and dazzling. Waldo and friends meander through sets of movie spectaculars: a silent movie, a Busby-Berkeley-style musical, a western--even an epic about Robin Hood. Each teeming, double-page spread shows moviemakers, actors, tourists, and spectators taking part in what appears to be cleverly staged mayhem. Younger Waldo fans will be successfully entertained; older ones will appreciate the sly humor of the "caught in the act" illustrations.
