Description

Curious George is feeling under the weather and he needs to take a sick day, which means visiting the doctor. Will George have to postpone his playdate too? Now in paperback.

Curious George has caught a cold. His throat hurts and he's nervous to see the doctor. Thankfully, the doctor is really nice and recommends some time on the couch with cartoons and colouring books. After a day of rest, George is ready to play! The man with the yellow hat says George needs more time to recover, so George comes up with a plan to get well as soon as possible.

Get Well, Curious George is available for the first time in paperback! Ideal for talking about doctor office anxiety and the importance of rest.
