Curious George Gets a Medal

Curious George gets a Medal Reviewed by Darius By H.A. Rey Are you very curious? Than Curious George gets a Medal by H.A. Rey is for you. George is curious and causes some trouble. It is important and extraordinary for youthful children. George lives on a farm during the fall time. He floods the house and goes to get a pump and lets a whole pen of pigs out. Then the farmers chase him. He gets on a truck that goes to the museum. I like when George floods the house with water. The illustrations were working with the setting to make it funny. It was really funny and amusing. The one thing I disliked it was really long. The plot was excellent. The theme was interesting and very good for little children. The setting also helped because the things look real. The theme is don't touch things your not allowed to. I think George is curious and if you are curious you are made for this book. This book is very funny. I recommend this book for young children.

I am 4 and I love this book because it has Curious George in it and because I like it and because Curious George gets a pump out and he races with a cow and he hides in a shirt.

The basic storyline is that Curious George gets himself into a heap of trouble, and the more he tries to fix the situation, the worse it gets. I did not feel that the story advocated George's tactics (stealing, etc.). All of the things that George does are obviously the wrong way of going about things...he doesn't earn the medal for any of his foibles. In fact, when George is caught it says "he felt so ashamed, he almost wished he were dead."Of course, as in other George stories, the man with the yellow hat shows up to save the day, and he redirects George to a more appropriate use of his intelligence.It may not be one of the great moral masterpieces of our civilization, but it's vintage Curious George--a classic from a simpler era when everything wasn't hyper analyzed.
