Both the classic Curious george books and the original Babar story are complete politically incorrect, but generations of kids have loved them anyway. Maybe Bruno Betelheim's theories about why kids connect with violent fairy tales are true. Anyway, George is abducted from the forest, but that's the way the original book went, and our kids have always been okay with it. The claymation-style animation is wonderful, too.

After a smash hit with Curious George goes to the Hospital, we decided to get this for my 3.5 year old. We were shocked! George is abducted by the man with the yellow hat (is actually shown shackled in a bag), nearly drowns while falling off the ship catching seaguls (is shown gasping for air underwater), then is confronted by very angry firefighters after experimentally making a phone call that results in a false alarm. The final shocker is George being thrown in jail and desparately trying to get out which finally results in his crying. This was little too much for our 3.5 year old.
Buyer beware!!!!!
