Great value, tough book

My 3-year-old son loves this book. It's a little bit heavy, but he can carry it across the room. These are some of his favorite stories and they have stood the test of time well.

His favorite request is the one about George learning the alphabet. It's also the longest one as well and sometimes I grown when he asks for it at bedtime. All the letter shapes are present as pictures of things which start with the letter and both uppercase and lowercase are included. I'm no teaching expert, but it seems like he's learning a little bit about the relationship between sounds and letters.

Some people have noted that the binding on this book is not strong. Ours seems indestructible. We've had this since Christmas (7 months ago) and with 2 active boys under 4, our house is no place for wimps or wimpy products. Maybe someone got one which is defective. Soft-cover books seem to fare much worse in our playroom.

wonderful collection

I loved Curious George when I was a kid, I mean I loved this monkey. And revisiting him or 20 years later, I found that I still love George. And it is great to find all the books in this one, nice, hardcover collection. I read it to my nephew and neice, and they loved it, as I'm sure your kids will too (and more than a few of you adults).

Wow!

As an author, I am into classic books for children. I believe this book will always be something any child would love to read. I remember adoring that cute litte monkey and the man in the yellow hat. Adventurous and curious was George. Who knew that we would still adore him after all this time?!

A childhood favorite

I loved Curious George as a kid. So of course my daughter had to be introduced to him.

She loved the stories instantly. It could be because of my enthusiasm for the stories.

Her favorites were the first story because of the balloons and the one with learning the alphabet. I had to read them several times. Even a couple times in one sitting.

The one bad thing about this book is the binding. It wore out a little too easily. Her Winnie the Pooh book is much bigger and it is still tight. This book could have been better bound so I will knock it one point.

Other then that it's a classic that will probably get read to my grandchildren someday.

-edit-
I happened to be in a bookstore and noticed a different binding on a copy of the book. This is probably why there is there are people saying it's bad and good. My copy is old and the book only yellow. The new book looks like they added a support "tape" to it.....
