1.0 out of 5 stars Not impressed, March 28, 2006

By 

Orlando Scott - See all my reviews

This review is from: Curious George Rides a Bike... and More Tales of Mischief (Scholastic Video Collection: The Great White Man-Eating Shark, Flossie and the Fox, The Happy Lion, and Cat and Canary) (DVD)

By the title I would be led to believe that there is more than one George story. There is one George and a few others, one of which scares my 2 1/2 year old. I thought the stories would be animated. However, some (including George) are pictures from a story book. We love to read books, but videos should be more than photos of a story book. Would not recommend this.

4.0 out of 5 stars Books on video, December 15, 2004

This review is from: Curious George Rides a Bike... and More Tales of Mischief (Scholastic Video Collection: The Great White Man-Eating Shark, Flossie and the Fox, The Happy Lion, and Cat and Canary) (DVD)

The Scholastic Video Collection is a limited set of Weston Woods's many excellent productions of video versions of children's picture books. Their intention is to create story hour readings of the books -- not animated films. Original illustrations are used, with minimal animation added for emphasis.
Think Reading Rainbow, not Spongebob Squarepants, and you will not be disappointed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not animated, September 27, 2004

By 

E. Wright "Animation lover" (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Curious George Rides a Bike... and More Tales of Mischief (Scholastic Video Collection: The Great White Man-Eating Shark, Flossie and the Fox, The Happy Lion, and Cat and Canary) (DVD)

Two out of three of the stories in this DVD are not animated. They are simply pictures from the book accompanied by a narrator reading the book. One could do this with a video camera.
