Customer Reviews

Love George!

I like that there r 8 stories in one book. George and “ the man in the yellow hat” are up to their usual antics!

The New Adventures of Curious George

My daughter just recently started to become interested in the Curious George books. She can't get enought of them. I really like it when books come out into a collection like this. You have many books all in one. There are the benefits of not having to keep up with so many books and it takes up less space. I know that my daughter will get alot of use out of this book.

Great Buy

This is definately a book a child will treasure, you really cant go wrong with it.

Fine read-aloud choices

Libraries looking to replace tattered old copies of the beloved 'Curious George' titles by Margret and H.A. Rey will welcome these fresh, new reprints. THE NEW ADVENTURES OF CURIOUS GEORGE provides eight short stories of the too-curious monkey and his man. These are fine read-aloud choices for adults and kids and follow George's adventures in a chocolate factory, in the kitchen cooking, viewing movies, playing in snow and more.

Some Of Curious George's Most Exciting Adventures Yet!

I simply cannot understand why people are giving this book a hard time. Yes it is true that the stories & pictures contained in this wonderful collection were not actually written and drawn by the Reys, but who really cares? This book stays true to the Curious George tradition. In fact, if it wasn't stated in the book, you might otherwise never have noticed. The stories are humorous, fun, exciting, suspenseful and always have a happy ending. The adventures George gets into in this series are more applicable to kids today. Although it is fun to see George get sent into space, a child simply can't relate to that. However, I don't think there is one of us who can't empathize with the excitement of going to a movie or the fun or playing with puppies. The bottom line is that you could nitpick the details of it, but if you don't like this fabulous collection, then you don't deserve to call yourself a true Curious George fan.

Great book for the little ones

I have to respectfully disagree with the preceding reviews. This book is great! My 3 year can't get enough. The art is outstanding and the stories are fun. One of the simple facts of parenthood is that you will end up reading the same books hundreds of times. They might as well be Curious George books.
