A Bike Ride to Safety

In a world teetering on the brink of chaos, Hans and Margret Rey embarked on a perilous journey that would forever change their lives and leave an indelible mark on children’s literature.

As the dark clouds of war gathered over Europe, they made the heart-wrenching decision to flee their beloved home in Paris, pedaling furiously away from the advancing German army on their bicycles. With them, they carried their most precious possessions: their children’s book manuscripts, including the one that would later become the beloved classic, Curious George.

Their journey was fraught with danger and uncertainty. Treacherous roads, relentless elements, and the constant fear of capture dogged their every move. But through it all, they held onto the flicker of hope that they would find a safe haven, a place where they could rebuild their lives and continue their work.

Finally, after a grueling odyssey that tested their limits, they found refuge in a small village in the French countryside. There, they were welcomed with open arms by kind strangers who offered them shelter and sustenance. In this newfound sanctuary, they began to heal the wounds of their displacement and slowly rebuild their shattered lives.

Despite the hardships they faced, Hans and Margret never lost sight of their passion for creating children’s books. They continued to write and illustrate stories, finding solace and purpose in their work. It was during this time that Curious George was born, a character who would bring joy and inspiration to countless children around the world.

Their story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the power of hope, and the unwavering belief in the transformative power of stories. It is a tale of courage, determination, and the triumph of creativity in the face of adversity.
