Curious George and the Bunny - Board Book

by H. A. Rey (Author), Margret Rey (Author), H. A. Rey (Illustrator)

Based on a vignette in the classic Curious George Flies a Kite, this story features George finding a hutch of adorable bunnies. He thinks it would be so much fun to play hide-and-seek with one of the baby bunnies, so he lifts it from its cage, sets it on the ground, and closes his eyes. But--oh, no--the bunny runs off, and George can't find it anywhere! Luckily, Mother Bunny comes to the rescue. This board book with sturdy pages is perfect for little ones who love playing hide-and-seek. The classic artwork of H. A. Rey will make this a favorite to be read again and again.

Author Biography

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.
