This is the true story of the exciting World War II escape of Margarete and Hans Reyersbach, the German-Jewish authors and illustrators of the beloved Curious George books. Illustrated with vintage photographs, clever drawings and excerpts from Hans’ own diary. Kids will be fascinated to learn that George was originally named Fifi, and that the Reys built their own bicycles from spare parts and rode across France for three days to catch a train and escape the Nazis. This short, interesting book is a fun choice for kids who loved Curious George.

I loved this book!
This is an astonishing and detailed book about how Hans Augusto Rey and Margret Rey escaped the horrors of World War II. The book told about the Jewish refugees' journey across Europe on bike and train. This insightful book gave me an amazing story about how this journey saved one of the most beloved book characters. After reading it I would give this book a six star rating if I could!
