Curious George
Curious George Sinks the Pirates/This Little Piggy
Since 1941, kids have delighted in the adventures of Curious George in the book series that has sold more than 27 million copies in 17 languages. Now George swings over to television. The TV series Curious George portrays the little monkey who lives to find new things to discover, touch, spill, and chew, inviting kids to explore science and math.
Based on the best-selling Curious George books by H.A. Rey and Margret Rey, the series expands George's world to include new characters and locales. Each episode includes two animated stories, followed by short live-action pieces showing real kids who are investigating the ideas that George introduces in his stories. Actor William H. Macy narrates.
Curious George Sinks the Pirates
Hundley, the lobby dachshund, longs to set sail on the ocean blue. Hundley's dream becomes "reality" one night when he dozes off to sleep and into a maritime adventure. Aboard the S.S. Dignified, the most orderly ship to ever set sail, Captain Hundley and his crew — Gnocchi, Charkie, and First Mate George — gear up for a watery quest. Yet it's not smooth sailing when Yellow Hat the Pirate and his crew attempt to take control of the vessel, and his own First Mate almost sinks the ship! Can Captain Hundley stay dignified and save the day?
This Little Piggy
For George, Dulson's Toy Store is irresistible, especially because it's where he finds the sailboat of his dreams. But he learns that the boat costs $5, which George doesn't have. After scouring his room and his penny reserve, George comes up short, but he sets out to earn the rest of the money by doing everything from house chores to harmonica performances. The Man with the Yellow Hat gives George a special piggy bank in which to store his savings — and, if George can only find a way to break open the bank to retrieve his funds, he'll discover that 100 nickels saved is one sailboat earned.
