Wow - I was totally ignorant of the history behind Curious George. My grandson loves CG, but when his older sister was his age, we kept those books away from her - she wanted to try everything George tried and it got her into trouble. :-)

Thank you for this post! I loved Curious George as a child, and even more loved reading the books to my children!

Curious George is a great role model. I was fascinated by these books as a kid--the little guy lived such an interesting life, always looking for adventure, doing things authority figures told him not to do but he wanted to try. Sometimes he ended up crying at the reactions of others--he wasn't trying to get people angry at him, he just wanted to SEE and DO things!
I'm surprised they didn't revamp him for today's standards. He'd spend the whole book sitting on the couch, curious as to what was on the other channels.
