Customer Reviews
Great set (but not hardcover)
Just received this in the mail. Very pleased with the set and got it for significantly cheaper than what the pre-order price was! Just wanted to point out (and in response to the first review) that the title of the product on this page is maybe a bit misleading. The box that the set comes in is hardcover but the books are "in its original oversize paperback format" as it says in the product description. I was expecting hardcover but re-read the page after receiving the set. Not too disappointed though as still wanted the set as I wanted them for my kids and my little brother had circled all the stuff to find in my old copies!!
Just to make it clear...
This is a set of six paperback books. Since a "collection" can be in one book, and the product details said it was 184 pages, I believed it was one "hefty" paperback book. It's not. It's been my experience that large, thin, paperback books don't hold up as well as thick ones, especially when it's a 5 year old boy trying to hold a great big book in his lap for an hour at a time. I was hesitant to buy the paperback, but I thought since it was thicker (184 pages), that it would be better, plus I'd save time and money over searching out the individual hardcovers. Oh, well. If you've got older children these will probably hold up just fine.
Great books
This is a boxed set of all the softcover Where's Waldo books. I gave this product only 4 stars since when I ordered it, it was described as a hardcover book and made no mention that this was a boxed set and did not mention the books were softcover at all. The description has since changed to better reflect the product.
I got this because I loved the Where's Waldo books as a 7 year old child. My 2 year old and I enjoyed looking at the pictures and finding people doing silly things, but she doesn't yet understand the concept of finding Waldo. I found things as an adult that I never saw as a kid and have a better appreciation for the series. Great gift for kids of all ages, even better gift for adults born in the 80s who enjoyed the books as a child.
