Review: This is a very cute story for young children. It had amazing illustrations to go with the story. This helped the reader follow along with the story and keep them involved.

Summary: The story begins with Curious George sitting on his porch and watching a pigeon. The pigeon had a little band tied around his ankle, and George was curious about what it was. He asked the man in the yellow hat and he said that they were called home pigeons and that they always return to their designated homes. George decided that he wanted his house to be that pigeons home so he starts to build a "tree" for him. He tries many ways to create a tree with clay and pipe cleaners, but none of them held the bird. Finally he created this ginormous "tree" out of toilet paper, baseball bats, and other objects around his house. Before he could let the bird get used to his new home, the man in the yellow hat arrived with the pigeons owner. George was very upset but as he looked back at his tree, it was covered in more pigeons than he could ever imagine.

Argument: This was a very cute story. I enjoyed reading this book, but it was hard to understand the overall message of the story. I think children would enjoy this book because many children have heard of or seen Curious George books before.

This book taught children about planning and design.… (mehr)
