Eventually, they made their way to the United States, and CURIOUS GEORGE was published in 1941. Throughout their lives the Reys created many lively books together, including SPOTTY, PRETZEL, and lift-the-flap books such as HOW DO YOU GET THERE? The manuscript of 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 Cambridge, Massachusetts, became the Reys’ home and community. In their twenties and thirties they lived in Paris and in Rio de Janeiro, where Hans sold bathtubs in villages along the Amazon River. Hans Augusto Rey (1898-1977) met his wife-to-be, Margret (1906-1996), at a party in her father’s home in Germany when he first caught a glimpse of her, she was sliding down the banister. Curious George has been successfully adapted into a major motion picture and an Emmy-winning television show on PBS. More than 200 Curious George titles followed, with 75 million books sold worldwide.
