The world’s most beloved and inquisitive monkey is back for another funny and heartwarming adventure! When Curious George meets Kayla, a magician’s homesick elephant, he decides to help her visit her brothers and sisters in California. But when the magician’s dogged security chief, Danno Wolfe, becomes convinced George has masterminded an elephant-‘napping, he begins an all-out investigation to track down the missing pachyderm. With Wolfe hot on their heels, George, Kayla and Ted (The Man with the Yellow Hat) travel by train, truck and even an engineless school bus on a comical cross-country trip to reunite Kayla with her family.

Cross-country caper with mild peril is OK for preschoolers.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that Curious George 2: Follow That Monkey! is a stand-alone 2009 sequel to Curious George. Some of the fast-moving train scenes present some perilous moments, but what would a road-trip movie be without a little taste of adventure? The Man with the Yellow Hat falls from a cliff (but is saved by an elephant). More peril when characters parachute from a plane; nobody is hurt. Mr. Wolf puts handcuffs on George, Kayla, and the Man with the Yellow Hat, and catches Kayla with a net. There are some themes of abandonment and separation from family, but everyone is brought together for a happy ending. Positive messages about the importance of family and friends.
