Margret and H. A. Rey created many books during their lives
together, including Curious George, one of the most treasured
classics of all time, as well as other favorites like Pretzel,
Spotty, and Find the Constellations. They had many pets--including
two marmoset monkeys that joined them on one of their steamship
journeys across the Atlantic. Committed philanthropists in their
own lives, a portion of proceeds from each Curious George book sold
flows to the Curious George Foundation, which funds programs for
children that encourage inquisitiveness in learning and exploring.

picture and an Emmy-winning television show on PBS and "Pretzel and
the Puppies," based on their picture books, is a streaming series

"While beginning readers are convinced that they are enjoying themselves with George, their supervising adults are equally sure that they are learning something. Both are absolutely right." Kirkus Reviews --
