Curious George is up to his elbows in dough and trouble as he tries his hand at making pizza. Tony the baker chases him out of his restaurant, and George hides in a truck in the alley. An angry Tony becomes a grateful Tony when George helps him deliver a pizza in a way that only a monkey could.

| Good book. It's one of the older George stories and drawings, not one of the newer George stories and drawings. |

| Bought this for my 14 month old grandson. He loves George and he loves pizza and this has become one of his favorite books. He loves the pictures and all the colors and all the things Curious George gets into. |

| The series of Curios George books is the favorite children's books series in our family, and this book is no exception to the rule. This story of the unusual pizza delivery is just great! Perfect bed reading! Another children's series that my eldest daughter recently fell in love with is Why Some Cats are Rascals, Book 1 |

Adapted from the Curious George animated film series, Curious George and the Pizza tells the story of the curious monkey and the Man with the Yellow Hat going out for pizza. They visit Tony's place, where the baker tosses dough in the air--making pizza in front of his customers.
Someone from a local factory calls to order a large pizza and Tony gets his coat. Curious George wonders if *he* could make a pizza, too--and begins tossing dough in the air.
He get locked in the pizza delivery truck by accident and Tony is angry when he discovers the monkey in the back when he arrives at the factory! However, because Tony arrived too late at the factory, the gate is locked--but George ends up saving the day.
As far as Curious George books go (my son has over a dozen of them!), the illustrations culled from animated stills are superior to the drawings by H.A. Rey (although they ARE classic!) so I liked the looks of this book. We were recently at a bookstore and my son asked for not one, but SEVEN more Curious George books...including this one!
He loves them all, in fact. This 32-page book is good for beginner readers and makes a nice bedtime story, too. My only reservation about this book is that that Tony calls George a "bad monkey"--instead of calling his BEHAVIOR bad. The good news is that Tony quickly figures out a way to use George for his own purposes--and doesn't harm him. |
