Each one is like a vast Victorian narrative painting, Frith's Derby Day, but done in the style of Tintin - and with jokes, and infinite patience. And now there are other Where's Wally characters as the books star some of Wally’s friends including Wilma (Where's Wally's girlfriend), Wenda, Wizard Whitebeard, Odlaw and Woof (Where's Wally's dog)!
