Be aware what you'll get is a book "Written by Cynthia Platt, Illustrated in the Style of H.A. Rey and Mary O'Keefe Young."The writing does not match my recollection of the writing of the original Curious George books which I read to my nephews in the past. I think readers should be aware of this so they can make an informed purchase.
So glad to see Curious George save the day in this beautifully illustrated tale of our friend George, the monkey and his human friend, the man in the yellow hat. George is really excited to visit a "Wild Animal Zoo" in which the animals roam free. When George falls off the tour bus, it seems as if he might be in real trouble, but, as usual, George's curiosity leads him on to save the day. I love the charming vintage style drawings as well as the page listing facts about the animals in the story to satisfy the curiosity of young readers. Recommended for ages five through nine and nostalgic adults who love Curious George.
A delightful Curious George story. I was in the car with my kids and they were getting antsy. I was happy that I had just downloaded this book onto the Kindle app in my phone. The picture was clear and the colors were vibrant. I was able to entertain my kids by reading the story and didn't have to resort to giving them my phone to play a mindless game in exchange for peace and quiet. All in all, I'm happy with my purchase.
I got this book for free after seeing it on one of my free book lists. My daughter was already familiar with Curious George because she has his hard back books and the movie. This was just a complement to what we already have and it is another cute story about George making friends.
Great graphics but the font is way too small for me to read on my phone or iPad. I have to zoom in and it's annoying to have to zoom in and out at every page. Makes the reading experience not so pleasant
My boys love Curious George books, and this is no exception! We purchased it for a great price, and it's one of their favorites for bedtime reading. It's long enough to have a plot, but not too long when you need a quick story.
Happy birthday baby rhino! My grandchildren and I enjoyed reading about the adventure that you and George had. We especially enjoyed playing the "find the differences" activity and all the beautiful illustrations. Mason and Katelyn give it two thumbs up! :)
Got this book for my 6 year old girl. But was pleasantly surprised that my 8 year old boy has read it several times and still wants to read it again. Would definitely recommend this book for anyone that has young kids. Great to see them excited about reading and this is something that reminds me of my childhood I used to love reading curious George myself.
