Costco Deal of the Week 6
A Good Little Monkey
So my friendly, neighborhood Costco has Read-Along Fun with Curious George. As this is the original Curious George storybook with a decent read-along cd (complete with Reading Rainbow style, monkey pipe-smoking sound effects) and Costco only wants $5.99 for the set vs. Amazon’s $9.95, I think it’s a pretty good deal. I mean, jeeze – the book alone lists for more than that.
(Perfect iPod fodder – bwahaha!)
They had a couple other George stories also available on cd, but since they were billed as “Margaret and H.A. Rey’s Curious George” (and since I don’t know which stories are original and which are much later, crummier additions) I abstained. I can live with monkey-knapping, prank phone calls and general amok-titude, but my tolerance for sequels is short lived.
Other general info: the book and cd come in a flimsy plastic “carry case” which doesn’t require an acetylene torch to open (and can therefore be reused); the cd just fits into a depression in the case and has no separate case of its own. The book is the nice, healthy 11 x 9 model with 56 sturdy pages and the original color illustrations – or at least the ones I’m used to. The cd has two tracks, one with the “page-turn signals” and one without – about 13 minutes a piece.
Go forth, yee monkey fans, and score. Trust me – this sort of thing doesn’t seem to go on sale very often.
