George is Still Curious at 60

Silly monkey! He makes boats out of the newspapers he's supposed to deliver. He disrupts the mayor's visit. But in all seven of the original curious george books by Margret and H.A. Rey, the mischievous monkey saves the day. It's been 60 years since readers first met George and his friend, the man with the yellow hat. To celebrate, there's a new book out, The Complete Adventures of Curious George, and a special exhibit opening this month at New York City's Children's Museum. Next year it will travel to California. Happy birthday, Curious George!
