My 5 year old son is absolutely obsessed with Curious George's books (just the books not the TV series for some reason). We have almost every Curious George book, so I was excited when I found this one.This collection includes a bunch of stories, some of them recycled from other books in a shorter version. So if you have the enormous yellow Curious George book that has 30 page stories in it, you'll find many of the same stories, except cut down to fit the "5 Minute Stories" tag. That part I didn't love. I wanted all brand new stories.However, there are at least 5 new stories that we had never read before and honestly, those 5 stories were worth the price of the book for us. We have read this book every single night without exception for three weeks now.So it's definitely a hit in our household.
Stories are cute, fast reads. My little guy enjoys being able to pick out which one he wants to read that night. He's 2.5 years old and loves the PBS series too. It's interesting to see the older illustrations compared to the new ones... i.e. female genius scientist ;)
Bought this as a Christmas present for a nice - I was surprised at how nice these books are. The covers are soft, the books are large without being too large for a child, and the pictures are bright and colorful.
If you have a toddler, then you know what bedtime can be like. Once they're finally done with their last drink, are in pajamas and ready for bed, its so exhausting to read the 15 minute story that your toddler will inadvertently pick out. This book is great - it has a character that toddler love, and the stories are limited to five minutes each. My toddler loves this book, and I love that the stories don't take so long to read. The stories are cute and keep my toddler interested. I would recommend this highly.
I read stories to my son before bedtime and was searching some good story book and found this one. The stories are nice and there so many pictures....my son loves them. Sometimes he doesn't let me read.... just flips the pages checking pictures and tells me what it is....pictures talk so much... :)I would definitely recommend this for toddlers who are always curious to learn at this age.....
My 4yr old daughter loves Curious George ♡ We read at least one story evert night and sometimes 5 minute stories are great when your little one has questions for every page :) Our 5 minute stories are more 10 to 15 minute stories:)
This is a beautiful, large, hardcover book full of classic Curious George stories. This is our go-to bedtime story book for our George loving 4 year old. Stories are a perfect length. Nice classic illustrations. A favorite in our house.
Perfect for the Curiuos George fan. Lots of pictures on each page to keep little ones from getting bored. My 2 and a half old son loves it, and mommy loves not getting stuck at night reading a 20 minute book.
