How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

4.0 out of 5 starsGreat George book for 3-4 year old
Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2014
Seems like there are love /hate reviews in amzn history on this book.

So far George gone fishing and the George and the bunny board books are fan favorites. We have some paperback ones too but they are long and no color.
My 3.5 year old loves this book and has memorized the story after having had it for only a few weeks and now reads it to us... He doesn't yet do this with any other book. He is a George fan so that helps.

We the parents recognize the stories were written in a different era and add in our own safety tips and even ask our little guy to suggest safety ideas like wearing a life jacket on the dock and never go out without an adult like mommy or daddy. We have done our own ad-lib in other George books and seems to work fine.

For few bucks we paid, we have beyond gotten our money's worth.

1.0 out of 5 starsBeware: NOT the original text!!
Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2018
For those of you familiar with the Curious George books, be aware, this is NOT the original text. It has been significantly changed and "dumbed down." With that, it has lost it's original charm! For example, one of my favorite pages was "With the hook on the string, and the string on the stick, and the cake in the box in his hand, George went back to the lake." That page has been changed to, "George had a string and a stick. He had a hook and some food. He went back to the lake." Definitely a disappointment!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Cute, but 20mo old uninterested.

Cute little book, but my 20 month old isn't really interested. Can't really fault the book for that, but I think it's just not interesting to him right now. The story is a bit strange, and I guess it just wasn't what I was expecting.

My two year old kid likes this book, but I don’t. The ending is lame and teaches kids to give up.

I love Curious George, but this wasn't the ending that I was hoping for, since I was giving this to a family that loves to fish.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nothing spectacular, just a small cardboard book.

Bought this for 2yr old who loves books. She wanted nothing to do with this book. Maybe when she's older she will like it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Gone Fishing
Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2012

Cute, brief little BOARD book. I overlooked that in the description; was just anxious to get a book on fishing to go along with my child's gift of a fishing pole. It's a little young for her but she enjoys Curious George and it went with the theme so it was worth it.
