George is excited to attend his first costume party, but there’s just one problem–he doesn’t have a costume! Will the mischievous little monkey be able to find the perfect one without starting too much trouble? Mrs. Gray’s party isn’t just any party–it’s a costume party, and George and the man with the yellow hat aren’t wearing costumes! No matter–there are plenty in an old trunk upstairs, and soon George is trying on all kinds of outfits. But it’s not long before George gets in the bed sheets. His new look may give the guests a scare at first, but in the end George is the life of the party!
Hans and Margret 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 Spotty and Pretzel. But it was their rambunctious little monkey who became an instantly recognizable icon. After the Reys escaped Paris by bicycle in 1940 carrying the manuscript for the original Curious George, the book was published in America in 1941. More than 200 Curious George titles followed, with 75 million books sold worldwide. Curious George has been successfully adapted into a major motion picture and an Emmy-winning television show on PBS.
