Where's Wally? (known in the United States and Canada as Where's Waldo?) is a series of children's books created by the English illustrator Martin Handord. The books consist of a series of detailed double-page spread illustrations depicting dozens or more people doing a variety of amusing things at a given location. Readers are challenged to find a character named Wally hidden in the group. Wally's distinctive red-and-white-stripped shirt, bobble hat and glasses make him slightly easier to recognise, but many illustrations contain red herrings involving deceptive use of red-and-white stripped objects.
