  • The Postcolonial Crisis that Never Was

    If you like reading texts alongside critical analyses, Curious George makes a great primary text for a postcolonial reading. Additionally, as long as you attribute the resultant race confusion (humans confused with primates) to the text and not your own analysis, it makes a decent primary text for this purpose as well. What does it mean that the man in the yellow hat feels entitled to take CG out of the jungle, into a ship, to the new world? How are we to read his reception by the natives of this new land? It is significant, in my reading, that TMITYH encounters no non-white humans in Africa, and that his ultimate goal is to make CG happy by placing him in a zoo, a place that attempts to replicate his original habitat. Also of interest to such a reading is an analysis of the text with the ...

  • Curious George

    My daughter feel in love with Curious George after first getting stuffed Curious George at 1 year old. She loved the stories and still does today at 19 years old. She first loved hearing all the things he and got in trouble for because he was "curious". She then moved to the idea that he was "saved" and given a new home to be free in with a man who loved him. To then considering him a chid who was noisy, like her, that got into trouble because he just had to "know". To this day, her curiousity has always opened up new avenues for her to explore, like George but with an understanding. Not a bad lesson for a child to learn.

  • A must read for all little ones

    Courious George was a staple when I was young. This is the original classic story that started it all. It is a great book to read aloud. I read it to my son. He likes to read this one over and over. This is a good one to work on comprehension. Many things happen along the way in this short tale of a money who comes from him home land via boat with a man in a yellow hat and lives a short adventure as he makes his way to his new home in the zoo. My son really enjoyed the pictures as well.

  • Excellent book--for the time period

    The original Curious George book is an entertaining read, and has great value as a historic literary work for children. Language and references are appropriately dated, and are not consistent with the zeitgeist of contemporary society.

  • Adorable book

    We love the adventures of George!!!
