Description

About the Author Margret and H. A. Rey created many books during their lives together, including Curious George , one of the most treasured classics of all time, as well as other favorites like Pretzel, Spotty , and Find the Constellations . They had many pets—including two marmoset monkeys that joined them on one of their steamship journeys across the Atlantic. Committed philanthropists in their own lives, a portion of proceeds from each Curious George book sold flows to the Curious George Foundation, which funds programs for children that encourage inquisitiveness in learning and exploring. Curious George has been successfully adapted into a major motion picture and an Emmy-winning television show on PBS and “Pretzel and the Puppies,” based on their picture books, is a streaming series on Apple TV+. www.curiousgeorge.com www.pretzelandthepuppies.com

Worth getting separately

This probably varies a lot child to child, but my 3 year old daughter is part fish and loves the beach. She also loves Curious George. But to buy the books individually can be pretty expensive. Which is why we own the two Curious George collections and have been reading them to our daughter since she was 2. For the money, you can't beat getting 16 stories for a fraction of the cost of buying them separately. But CG Goes to the Beach is not included in either of the two collections, and being that my daughter loves the beach, I gave in and bought this one individually. It's typical CG humor and every bit as good as any of the stories in the collections and, for us, definitely worth buying separately.

Nephew Loves George

My nephew is realy into Curious George right now. He just came back from a trip to the beach which makes this a great gift for him. He is so much like Curious George, so curious and seeming to always get into trouble.

beach vacation

Three year old grandchildren in four families got this book for a present, a few weeks before an extended family reunion at the beach. The situations of the book are typically outrageous (all of Curious George is) but recognizable and familiar beach settings!
