Beach Days - Fun in the Sun

Curious George Goes to the Beach brought back all the fun memories of my brother, George, and I at the beach in San Diego when we were little tykes. So fun and totally imaginable! Read it to your kidlets and your grandchildren this summer!

An Instant Hit

This book was given with a stuffed Curious George as a birthday gift for a little one--it was a huge hit. As most Curious George stories, it was great for a little snuggle time.

Life's a Beach ...George!!

This book and Curious George himself takes me back to a gentler time. A time when I was young and a time when my son was young. He and I LOVE to read all about George's silly mishaps daily. This book was an automatic favorite because we live in Rhode Island and live at the beach in the summer. So he would always take this book and his george doll down in his bag. These stories are filled with laughter and love, two things a child can't get enough of and there is usually even a good manners lesson taught to George too that they don't soon forget. So, any of the Curious George series is a winner with our family...and we don't even live near the "man with the yellow hat". lol* Have fun and make each night a night you read to your child...it's so important. I even read to him in the womb each night. He talked early and certainly knew my voice almost immediately. A winner any way you look at it. : ) Thank you George.

I love all the curious George books. Who Doesn't? author of "Hobo Finds A Home"

Just as good as the original stories

To date my daughter has been reading the "Curious George" books that belonged to my husband when he was a child. I was a little skeptical that the newly written stories would capture the same spirit as those written more than 30 years ago. However, my daughter absolutely loved it especially as both the storyline and the illustrations were more detailed than usual and made it fun for her to point out different things and extend into a discussion with us about beaches, lifesaving etc. Like her other "George" books she has reread this one over and over.
