Curious George Goes to the Circus

Reach for this book when your child is feeling discouraged by a mistake or needs to see that 'getting into trouble' isn't always the end of the world. It is an excellent choice for kids who struggle with perfectionism or who often find themselves in hot water due to their own curiosity. The story follows George as his well-intentioned meddling at the circus lead to a chaotic mishap during an acrobatic act, yet his accidental involvement actually saves the show. It beautifully balances the tension of making a mess with the joy of a happy ending. Parents will appreciate how it validates a child's natural impulse to explore while showing that mistakes can sometimes lead to unexpected, positive outcomes. It is a gentle, humorous way to discuss resilience and the idea that being 'different' can be a strength.
