Play ball! A lively storybook starring the “adorable but trouble-making primate” (Forbes). George is going to watch a baseball game, accompanied by the man with the yellow hat. But one curious little monkey in one big stadium makes for one exciting day at the ballpark! “The only predictable thing about that dynamic monkey, Curious George, is his unpredictability.”—The New York Times
In 1940, Hans and Margret Rey fled their Paris home as the German army advanced. They began their harrowing journey on bicycles, pedaling to Southern France with children’s book manuscripts among their few possessions. Louise Borden combed primary resources, including Hans Rey’s pocket diaries, to tell this dramatic true story. Archival materials introduce readers to the world of Hans and Margret Rey while Allan Drummond dramatically and colorfully illustrates their wartime trek to a new home. Follow the Rey’s amazing story in this unique large format book that resembles a travel journal and includes full-color illustrations, original photos, actual ticket stubs and more. A perfect book for Curious George fans of all ages.
Beginning readers follow along as one family experiences the fun and excitement of a trip to the ballpark—from the first bite of a hot dog to the last home run. This fictionalized approach to a common childhood experience helps young readers find enjoyment on each page while strengthening vocabulary skills. Accessible text and a helpful picture glossary are accompanied by bright illustrations that bring the thrill of a great baseball game to all readers.

So many books—and one busy monkey! George is lucky to arrive at the library just in time for story hour. But it’s not easy for a little monkey to sit still too long . . . From selecting books to getting his very own library card, George’s day at the library makes reading fun for little ones.
Now with read-aloud audio! When George joins Mrs. Gray's class for field trip to the fire station, his curiosity gets the best of him. After he strays from the group to see where that shiny silver fire pole leads, he tries on black rubber boots, a fireman's jacket, and trademark helmet. Just as he suits up in uniform, the fire bell rings. An emergency! George simply has to tag along. But what will a curious little monkey do when they arrive on the scene? Help, of course! Fortunately, it is only a small fire near the park. But those kids playing ball on the grass there sure catch his attention. Now what?
