We are big fans of Curious George and his adventures in our home. My four-year-old son likes collecting all the different Curious George stories to read time and time again. The collection started with two Curious George books that my son received for gifts from his grandma. We live in a small town where bookstores can't be found. The nearest bookstore is in the city almost two hours away. I went to the bookstore I'm speaking of once only to find the cost of Curious George books to be more than I was willing to pay. At the bookstore, I was surprised that they didn't have a greater selection of Curious George Books. I went home and checked on my good old website for Curious George Books. Wow, that was the ticket. Not only was the selection in abundance, the books cost only pennies. Needless to say, we now have about a dozen Curious George Books and we purchased them all on . Curious George and the Costume Party is a great story for children of all ages. George tries on various costumes and scares the wits out of people who think he is a ghost. It's sincerely a cute story that my four-year-old son loves to read. We read it about two dozen times during the month of October.
This Curious George book is a nice alternative to other Halloween books, because it explores Halloween traditions other than trick-or-treating.Curious George and the man with the yellow hat go to a friends house for a Halloween party, and it is a costume party. George and his friend have to borrow costumes from the hostess, and of course George's curiosity gets him in trouble. The guests play games like bobbing for apples.This book is funny, like most curious george books. Children aged three and four who are just becoming familiar with Halloween will appreciate George's antics, and learn about halloween and costume parties at the same time.There is nothing in this book that scared my son, aged 3. I don't think there is anything in here that would scare the average child of 3 or 4 years old. It's wholesome Halloween fun.ken32
At first I was a little suspicious about this book, "illustrated in the style of H.A.Rey by Martha Weston." I didn't want anybody messing with my dearly loved friend, Curious George! I am glad to say that I was pleasantly surprised. This book tells the Halloween adventures of our curious little pal, as he and the man with the yellow hat go to a costume party. At first, George finds it a bit scary because he doesn't understand about make-believe dress-up, but then he gets into the fun of it. They need to borrow costumes from the hostess of the party and George has lots and lots of choices. Due to George's typical curiosity, the party becomes much more lively than the hostess intended! The story and the illustrations are true to the style we know and love from the original Curious George books by Margret and H.A. Rey. The pictures are brimming with action and excitement and colorful fun. This story has the added benefit of introducing some Halloween characters that little ones may be frightened of and showing that they are really just pretend and taking the scariness out of them. It also shows fun Halloween customs like jack-o-lanterns, bobbing for apples and other party activities. This is a real treat for Curious George fans and for fans of Halloween. Don't miss it.
George loves parties, but when the door of the house is opened by a horrible witch, he learns what a costume party is. Getting into the spirit of the thing, George decides that he too wants to wear a costume. What a fun party!When I was a kid, I loved the Curious George books, and I am very happy to be able to sharing them now with my little one. This is a fun book, with great illustration work and an uplifting story. My little one liked it a lot, and I must admit that I did too!
This was a cute George book where he and his friend go to a part but it's a costume Halloween party! He didn't know they were to dress up but the lady hosting the party had a chest of dress up clothes that George finds the perfect costume. He has fun with his friends.
The story is great and all except that the ebook looked like they were simply scanned copies of the original book. Also, on top or below the "scanned" pages, they added words (so yes, you have to sets of words here) that did not match up to the pictures & page. I purchased a Curious George ebook before and it doesn't look anything like this one.
Ismail's book reviewThis book is about Curious George going to a costume party. My favorite character in this book was George because he looks at everything in the shop. I liked this book because George can't wait to go to the party. You should read this book because George does everything!
Great story but as with other books the pages duplicate making it frustrating to read at times. Of course George id entertaining and keeps the attention of little ones
