Curious George attends a ballet and disrupts the production with his tomfoolery, but the endearing monkey manages to rectify his blunder and look charmingly innocent

ea. vol: adapt. illus. CIP. Houghton. 1986. PLB $8.95; pap. $2.95. PreSGrade 2No doubt that those chil dren who love the original ``Curious George'' titles (Houghton) will choose to read these booksbut they will sure ly be disappointed. The text, adapted from a film series, is trite. The plots are slight and lack the richness of language found in the orignal titles. The illustra tions seem to be blurry prints of some of the film frames. Even the layout is stagnant. In each of the four books, George is confronted with a problem of singular dimension that he resolves as a result of his curiosity. Children who are just beginning to read about this inquisi tive primate will be best served by the many ``original'' titles still in print; the language in them is more stimulating, the plots more satisfying, and the illus trations and layout more interesting.
