Wish You Were Here is a book of nonsense verse about a bizarre family that travels all over the world. From the Eiffel Tower to the Great Wall of China - wherever they go, they send postcards to their stay-at-home relative, saying, 'Wish you were here!' Little do they know, she'd rather not be there at all. Wacky and colourful characters populate the landscapes of the wonders of the world - as re-imagined by two talented Indian poster artists - in what must be the strangest family album ever.
