Rating: Summary: My Favorite Character!!!! Review: Curious George is truly a must have for children of all ages!!!!
Rating: Summary: A Little Too Long, But Still Fun Review: Curious George's new bike leads him to an extended adventure delivering newspapers, making a regatta of paper boats (there are instructions on how to make one!), and visiting a circus after wrecking the front wheel.George is not quite as innocent here as in his other books. He's a little more like Mr. Toad, doing some things he knows he shouldn't do, and he's not always very careful. Still, his exuberance and the winning 1950's illustrations are a delight. As usual, George gets into trouble with people, but eventually he rescues one of the circus animals and is hailed as a hero. It's true that George gets into an circus wagon with two strangers... Be sure to advise your own little monkey not to take rides with strangers. But if that upsets you, you might as well also explain that circuses are often not very animal-friendly. A little too long compared with the simple joys of other George books, but this does extend the curious monkey's adventures to somewhat older kids. Lots of action in the 48 pages, with no more than one to three short paragraphs of text per page.
Rating: Summary: This is what spoiled it for me... Review: George was out playing alone when he encountered two men in a vehicle whom he had NEVER met before. They were friendly and told him that he was talented. The next thing we know is that the three of them get into the cab and drive off. Oh dear !! This isn't the sort of thing I'd wish to encourage, would you ? One positive thing about the tale is that it provoked discussion about never going away with strangers even if they seem nice. We like the Curious George books and appreciate the fact that they were written quite some time ago, but when reading to impressionable kids it's good to make sure that you approve of the content.

Rating: Summary: This is what spoiled it for me... Review: My 21 month old son adores this book. It's the longest book he's ever had us read to him, and he requests it over and over again. He can relate to the story line, it's beautifully illustrated and it's less dated than some of the "George" books.
Rating: Summary: Curious George rides a bike Review: This book Curious George rides a bike is about monkey who gets a bike because it is the mans and George's third year sense they meet. So George is a very curious monkey and he is not aloud to ride his bike past his house but George does. George goes off and gets into trouble. This book teaches a lesson about listening to your gardian. It teaches that by when George goes off and gets into trouble with the circus because he feeds the ostterage a flute. The ring master told him not to feed the ostterage any thing because it will eat anything that you give it. This books age level is from five and up. It is this age level because it could teach kids when there young to listen to there parent. I think that the book was good it had a little bit of a adventure to it. It also tought a lesson which I though was good also.
