- <p> The hunt is on for a chap in stocking cap and striped shirt.
- In the U.S. he's Waldo, but his British creator Martin
- Handford, 34, calls him Wally. By either name, he hikes through
- a series of children's books that have sold more than 3.5
- million copies worldwide. Readers must find his cheery face in
- crowded scenes. "It's fair to say I'm obsessed with it," says
- Handford, whose fourth Waldo book is due this summer. While
- drawing, he listens to a Bee Gees song with the words, "I
- started a joke that started the whole world laughing." And
- searching.
