Curious George is a classic and I love pretty much all of his stories. This story is about the man in the yellow hat planning a surprise birthday party for George. George, of course, gets into mischief beforehand with the cake but is able to think of a way to solve the problem on his own.

curious george (monkey) was asked by his owner to stay out of trouble and accidentally made a huge mess - even though his intention was good and was trying to help. He was quick thinking and problem solved a way to fix it. After the solution, he was rewarded by a birthday party for himself.
