Where's Waldo? The Magnificent Movie Spotlight Search: (A Hidden Object Search-and-Find Puzzle Book with a Magic Flashlight to Reveal the Picture a Perfect Gift & Travel Companion for All Ages)
#16 in Where's Waldo? Series
What’s inside...
Waldo, Wenda, Wizard Whitebeard, and their mischievous canine pal Woof step onto a buzzing film lot filled with ten oversized movie sets. Young readers become ‘assistant directors,’ using a paper flashlight tucked into a cardstock sleeve to illuminate hidden layers on each tinted acetate spread. As they scan musicals, westerns, sci-fi sagas, and pirate swashbucklers, children hunt for Waldo and dozens of playful props while absorbing visual jokes, cinematic references, and mini-stories unfolding in every crowd scene.
