Curious George and the Dinosaur

Summary: Not bad, but not the same
Review: This book is " adapted from the Curious George film series". The illustrations are different from the original, and even from the "Illustrated in the style of H.A. REY" both of which I feel are much better.

The story is about CG who goes to a museum and gets into "trouble". It is a very short episode that doesn't really teach anything. Maybe its because I didn't even know there was a film series.

I recommend the 3 book miniature set of originals, and "CG goes to a chocolate factory".

Summary: Not the message you want to give your kids
Review: This is just not up to the caliber of the original books....The behavior and comments of the children in the story convey themessage that learning is unpleasant and museums are boring - - not themessage I want to give to my children. In addition, George climbs adinosaur fossil and the museum director states that this activity isok, because now the children are not bored by having to be at thedull, old museum. This book was a gift which we have removed from ourbookshelf.
