Curious George Goes to the Beach

by Margret Rey and H. A. Rey

Curious George Goes to the Beach Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

When the man with the yellow hat brings George to the beach, George finds plenty to keep himself occupied. He plays with his ball, pretends to be a lifeguard, and discovers some very hungry seagulls! When George and his friend Betsy decide to feed their new feathered pals, George realizes hes without lunch, and that his picnic basket has floated away with the tide! Only a heroic rescue will save the basket, and George knows just what to do. In saving the basket, he also helps his friend Betsy overcome her fear of the ocean.

This paperback edition now includes a word game featuring beach vocabulary, a spot-the-difference activity, and a picture comparison brain-teaser.

Synopsis:

One hot summer day, George and the man with the yellow hat go to the beach. What fun George has at the beach! What fun he has feeding the seagulls! It's fun, that is, until they fly away with something valuable and George must find a clever way to save the day.

Synopsis:

George has fun on the beach feeding the seagulls--until they fly away with something valuable.

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.
