I grew up with Curious George. In fact, I think I had almost every book. I always knew that mischievous little monkey has been around for a long time, but I never realized just how long. Did you know that Curious George was created in 1941 by Margret and H.A. Rey? I sure didn’t! That means he’s almost 70 years old, wow!

Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey was released on DVD today from Universal Studios Home Entertainment. We have been waiting for this release because lets face it, my whole family is a fan of Curious George. We just can’t resist that little monkey! His heart is always in the right place and that’s really what this movie is all about. They went to see Kayla perform and she disappeared in a magic trick, so of course “curious” George had to go see what happened.

I thought Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey was a good movie. The kids thought it was great too and have watched it over and over. At their ages, a movie has to be good to watch it more than one or two times. Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey is definitely A+ material.
