Curious George has fun with his letters in this toddler-friendly version of 'Curious George Learns His Alphabet'. George is very curious about all the books that belong to his friend, the man with the yellow hat. But what do all those little marks on the pages mean? George's friend teaches him about the letters of the alphabet in Curious George's ABCs. This board book with sturdy pages is perfect for little ones learning to recognise letters. The classic artwork of H. A. Rey will make this a favourite to be read again and again. AGES: 3 and under 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 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 numerous languages. And many, many Curious George books have followed.
