Children’s book publisher Scholastic has bundled video adaptations of five award-winning picture books on Curious George Rides a Bike… and come up with a treat for youngsters 4 to 9. Kids-lit purists will appreciate the spare animation; the title story and Flossie and the Fox, in fact, are not animated but rather proffer the books’ original illustrations accompanied by a narrator’s enjoyable readings. Curious George Rides a Bike is a classic episode in H.A. Rey’s series in which George rides a bicycle into several misadventures. The Great White Man-Eating Shark, about a boy who uses his resemblance to a shark to scare swimmers, is even more witty with a touch of animation. The aforementioned Flossie is a cute tale about a girl who outwits a vain fox, while the ironic The Cat and the Canary and The Happy Lion, the latter about a Parisian lion who takes a stroll, both look wonderful here. –Tom Keogh
