About the Author

Hans Augusto Rey was born in Hamburg, Germany in 1898. As a child, he spent much of his free time in that city's famous Hagenbeck Zoo drawing animals. After serving in the army during World War I, he studied philology and natural science at the University of Hamburg. He then married Margret Rey and they moved to Montmartre for four years. The manuscript for 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.

excellent for fans of the new animated series4
this book is a huge hit with me nearly 3 year old son at bedtime. the story is very cute, shows curious george going through his bedtime routine. most toddlers will relate to the steps he takes before heading off to bed and delight in familiar scenes to the episodes of the first season of curious george animated series on PBS. each page is a tab and every page ends with "are you sleepy yet?" My son always answers no, until he gets to the final page where curious george is sleeping and then he says shhh along with me, as curious george is sleeping. very sweet.

his favorite5
My 18 month old son loves this book - he brings it to me to read to him even in the middle of the day. He points at the familiar objects on the pages (like George, toothbrush, blocks) and wants to look at it over and over again. I don't mind because it's also one of my favorite children's books. This is a keeper!

Adorable -- a favorite in our home5
It's a board book, and another in the too-long line on non-Rey "Curious George" titles, but this one is near-perfect bedtime reading.

Loaded with cute illustrations (done not in the classic Rey style but that of the animated PBS Kids series), it should help any child develop a bedtime routine and get to sleep with a smile.
