This is a book I loved as a child that I hadn't read in a long time! It's an iconic character, and brings up some valuable topics for children. There were a number of books in the series, but the first one was on point, and still a favorite to have (parents and teachers) today.Book Review 4 of 5 stars to Curious George by H.A. Rey, a children's author, who wrote this series starting in 1941. Who didn't love Curious George when they were a child? Or even now as an adult? So many fun memories of this wonderful little monkey. In this first book, George comes home for the first time, and the infamous yellow coat becomes a hallmark. He's so innocent, yet such a magnet for bad things to happen. But aren't all monkeys? An adorable way to teach kids to ask questions, but
According to old family tales, I requested that my parents read this one to me so many times that they resorted to accidentally on-purpose "misplacing" it for a while--just long enough to get a chance to read something else to me. :D That said, as an adult, I struggle with rating this classic. As a kid, I loved all the craziness George gets into and how the man in the yellow hat loves him regardless. Now, I find myself cringing at so many things-George being stuffed into a bag and taken from his
I hate Curious George so much, I can't even tell you. Admittedly, I am not the target audience and the target audience seems to like it just fine. I was trying to figure out the appeal -- maybe the fun of watching someone else get in trouble? or maybe it has the kind of physical comedy that appeals to four year olds (falling into things, getting messy, etc.)? I was hoping to avoid the gazillion George books, but -- curse you, preschool! -- he saw a video at school and came home super keen on
We are avid Curious George fans at our house. But... this first book of the series was a disappointment when we checked it out from the library.(If you haven't seen it, check out the Curious George television show on PBS. So cool. The narration, jazz music background and teaching about math/ science is captivating). This book is a study in cultural change! First, George is captured and removed from his natural habitat in Africa by the man with the yellow hat. George smokes a pipe. George is put
Totally awesome book. There's like a monkey and stuff. And there's like a dude with a yellow hat. The book's like yellow too. I reminds me of cheese. Sweet, sweet cheese.The monkey is like curious and stuff. His name's like George. He's so awesome.
I'm fairly confident I read all of these multiple times when I was little. I'm actually considering reading the New York Public Library's top 100 list of kids' books and pleasantly surprised that I've already read a lot of them.
