We've been reading Curious George Takes A Train. It starts out "This is George. He is a good little monkey and always very curious. Today, George and his friend, the man in the yellow hat, are taking their friend Mrs. Needleman on a picnic to the country."
I am left wondering why, in the 1950's, a married woman is going to the countryside with a zookeeper unescorted except for a troublesome monkey. I've decided that they're having an affair.
And I'm happy that the man in the yellow hat is getting some. It answers the question of why George lives with him instead of the zoo.
