Synopsis

It's open house at George's school, and George gets to try his hand at painting in the art room. What he creates, however, is not a pretty picture! George is still a clever monkey, though, and in the end, he makes the open house a happy occasion for everyone.

About the Author

Margret Rey was born in Hamburg, Germany, where she met H. A. Rey when she was a young girl. After attending art school and training at the Bauhaus, she married H. A. and they moved to Montmartre for four years. The manuscript of 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.

Reviews

Kindergarten-Grade 2--There seems to be no end to this perennially naughty little monkey's adventures. Here are four new stories in which George finds trouble because of his curiosity, and in doing so manages to save the day. Two books show a female dentist and a male art teacher. The quality of the stories and pictures, while on par with the other 20 odd books made from the Curious George film series, are in no way as imaginative or enduring as H. A. Rey's originals. However, children love George and never seem to tire of the repetitious plots or less than distinguished illustrations.
