Where's Waldo? Celebrating his thirtieth anniversary! Following Waldo on his very first wanderings is more exciting (and challenging) than ever in this special anniversary edition of his international debut. Waldo weighs in with a letter about his three decades on the go, and, in a clever twist, the book's finale repeats Waldo's opening scene -- but with a whole new population and things to look for.

Author Biography

Martin Handford began his career as a freelance illustrator specializing in drawing crowd scenes for numerous clients. The turning point came when he was asked to create a book showcasing his singular talent, and the character Waldo was born. "I can't tell you how pleased I am that Waldo has taken on a life of his own," says the man behind the Waldo books. "I'd like to inspire children - to open their minds, to explore more subjects, and to just be aware of what's going on around them. I'd like them to see wonder in places that might not have occurred to them."
