Book Reviews of The Complete Adventures of Curious George, Anniversary Edition
Book Review: Curious George: our bedtime hero!
Summary: 5 Stars
In the first week of August we took our two children - aged 4 1/2 and 2 1/2 - to see the movie of Curious George. Both loved it. As a matter of fact my wife and I had never before enjoyed a childrens movie as much as we did this one about Curious George.
However the stories aren't translated in Dutch yet, so we decided to buy this complete collection instead. It's great! The adventures of Curious George translate very easily in Dutch while reading it aloud to the children, and the children love to make up their own stories looking at the terrific drawings of Curious George and all his friends. Bedtime has become the best time, 'cause that's Curious George time!
Book Review: For old memories and new...
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently purchased this book as a 34 year old with no children of my own, perhaps only to reconnect with a literary mammal that played such a huge role in my own childhood. I found that with every page turn, the images and the stories brought back a flood of wonderful memories that rekindled my own imagination. You already know the adventures, but you'll be surprised at what this trip into your past will do for your soul. Buy this book and make yourself happy. Oh, yeah, and the kids, too.
In contrast to other statements made by other reviewers, I found the book to be of perfectly acceptable quality, and the colors and reproductions were very good.
Book Review: A Great Book to Read at Bedtime
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was a child, curious George was one of my favorites, and now this fine book allows me to pass along George's adventures to my own children. Perhaps the best thing about this book is that it contains so many curious George stories. You could read a different story each night for several nights. My children have quickly become as fond of George as I was when I was a child. The accompanying illustrations are very colorful and they definitely grab a young child's attention. I highly recommend this fine children's book. It is a great book to share with your children and perhaps serve as a reminder to your own childhood.Book Review: The binding problem has been corrected
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I read all of the reviews about how bad the binding was on this book. We debated about ordering it and decided to anyway, despite the quality, because my daughter absolutely loves the stories.
Upon arrival we were pleasantly surprised to find the book was in excellent shape. I could see where the binding had originally been made poorly, but they had rebound the book very well correcting the problem. We are very pleased with it and I recommend this book to anyone with children young and old. I still like the stories even at 40 and remember when my parents use to read them to me.
Book Review: A great book
Summary: 5 Stars
My 3 year old daughter has recently discovered Curious George so while looking for a few books to buy her, I came across this one and thought that for the price, it was a great value. I was right. She loves the stories and we read them over and over. We have had no trouble with the binding or any other aspects of the book construction. It's been fun for my husband and I to read the background information about the Reys and how George came to be and how he's evolved. We were both George fans when we were kids so it's great fun to be able to share him with our daughter. I'd buy this again in a heartbeat.
