Product Description
Curious George, the beguiling little monkey, is one of the most beloved of all children's book characters. Now this collection of four board books featuring Curious George is available in a sturdy, reusable, carry-along box. Brightly colored and suitably scaled for the youngest readers, the books feature art from the original storybooks by H. A. Rey.
About the Author
Hans Augusto Rey was born in Hamburg, Germany in 1898. As a child, he spent much of his free time in that city's famous Hagenbeck Zoo drawing animals. After serving in the army during World War I, he studied philology and natural science at the University of Hamburg. He then married Margret Rey and they moved to Montmartre for four years. The manuscript for the first Curious George books was one of the few items the Reys carried with them on their bicycles when they escaped from Paris in 1940. Eventually, they made their way to the United States, and Curious George was published in 1941. Curious George has been published in many languages, including French, German, Japanese, Afrikaans, and Norwegian. Additional Curious George books followed, as well as such other favorites as CECILY G. AND THE NINE MONKEYS and FIND THE CONSTELLATIONS.

Childhood Favorite,
By "viralisrx" (Columbus, OH) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Curious George Story Book Collection (Board book)
I added this book to my registry because Curious George is a book I remember loving strongly when I was very young. Curious George is a classic, and I wanted to share that enjoyment with my little one, when she becomes old enough to understand it more.This set comes in a sturdy box that buttons to close and contains four different Curious George books inside. The books are all board books and each one has the bright and delightful cartoons that I remember inside. While my baby is still too young to get the gist of the stories, she does enjoy chewing on the book, hehe, and the bright colors keep her attention. This is an awesome gift set, especially for the good price.

Adorable,
By S. FRENCH - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Curious George Story Book Collection (Board book)
This book set is perfect for my two year old. He asks to read it over and over, or just sits and "reads" it himself, pointing to the pictures and naming things, and best of all, kissing the bunnies.

Classics for the very young,
By C. Wheeler "Reading Grammie" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Curious George Story Book Collection (Board book)
These books were purchased for a one year old and are very sturdy and will last for a long time. My grandchild is too busy to sit still for more than a few pages at a time, but these books are small enough for him to hold and point to the pictures and enjoy on his own. We read to him by naming the pictures, but the reading experience can never begin too young.
