Curious George's 1 to 10 and Back Again

by H. A. Rey (Illustrator)

Overview

A delightful book for preschoolers who are curious about counting!

Curious George is a monkey who’s learning math—that is, how to count all his favorite things. Not only that, but he’s going to do it both forward and backward—from one to ten, and then ten to one!

With this colorful book featuring classic illustrations by H.A. Rey, “youngsters count along with ‘1 curious monkey’ as he points out ‘2 dinosaurs,’ ‘3 tasty donuts’ and up to ‘10 paper boats’ before counting down again” (Publishers Weekly).

About the 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 studied philology and natural science at the University of Hamburg. He then 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 many languages, including French, German, Japanese, Afrikaans, and Norwegian. Additional Curious George books followed, as well as such other favorites as CECILY G. AND THE NINE MONKEYS and FIND THE CONSTELLATIONS.
