Happy Easter, Curious George: Gift Book with Egg-Decorating Stickers!: An Easter And Springtime Book For Kids

The content is pretty typical of Curious George books- cute, predictable, and my 3 year old daughter will love it just like she loves all Curious George books. The stickers are an added bonus. Nothing special to it like other books in our collection, but a decent book for the Easter basket this year.But the book stinks! It is off putting some awfully powerful gasses that I have never smelled from a book before. The ink used to print the book is really, really stinky and we may have to return the book if it doesn't air out in the next few days in the garage. Toxic fumes are no bueno in a kiddos book. The book is cute enough, but not cute enough to put up with the stink.Update: We let the book sit in the garage with the pages fanned out and that did the trick. Still makes me wonder what ink they used in printing this book, but at least we got the smell out.

Bought mainly because Curious George is familiar to my grandson, because of NetFlix. He's a bit too young to care about the concept of an egg hunt...but will be ready for that next year. At least I'm not the granny that bought the five foot blue stuffed Easter Bunny...and I am good with that.

I just sent notification to Amazon but I don't know how long they will take to change it but both Amazon and the publisher are deceiving the public by making this book appear to be by Margaret & H.A. Rey. It is actually written by R. P Anderson and "illustrated in the style of H.A. Rey by Mary O'Keefe Young." There is nothing wrong with an author writing and illustrating a book in the style of someone else, provided they have the correct permissions. But the public should understand they are NOT getting an authentic Margaret & H.A. Rey creation. I am sure that Margaret & H.A. Rey would also not have wanted praise or blame for a book they did not write and illustrate. One interesting detail: the Reys were Jewish and lived in Germany until 1935 at which time they fled to escape the growing anti-Semitism that culminated in the Holocaust. It makes sense that they would not write a book about Easter. Likewise the Curious George book about Christmas was NOT written and illustrated by them.

We gave this book to our 4-year old grandson for Easter and you never saw a more excited and happier child. And then he found out the book came with “the real thing,” and his joy was boundless! It was really a great thing to see and experience. I highly recommend it.

My middle grandson adores anything Curious George - and this Easter book was perfect for the holiday gift. When the Wishing Star Foundation so generously provided my grandson and his immediate family a trip to visit the Orlando theme parks - Curious George made a special appearance for him - and it was the highlight of his experience! Little ones with problems endure so much - having a friend like CG to come calling - even in story book form - can be the best medicine.

I love it its super good!Its enjoyable!I read this today and its awesome!Thank you this book needs to be read to children.

I purchased this book as an Easter gift for my five year old nephew who is really into Curious George. We read it several times the day I gave it to him. Nice story! My nephew really liked it because he wanted to take it home with him. If he doesn't like something, he wants to leave it at my house.

Very cute book but not one of the originals. Curious George is being overexposed.
