Misplaced Wildlife: In Curious George Learns the Alphabet, it is stated that George had experience with jaguars, as he had lived in the jungle once just like jaguars do. However, other books clearly state that George came from an African jungle (and he appears to be a chimpanzee, which is native to Africa, although he is called a monkey even though chimpanzees are technically apes). Jaguars are native to Central and South America.

comment
Hated Item Makeover: In "Curious George Takes a Job", George is tasked into washing windows. He sneaks into someone's apartment room as several painters have left for a lunch break and notices the bare walls. He paints palm trees on the walls and paints the chairs and a rocking horse to resemble leopards and a zebra, respectively. When the painters come back in, they chase George out and the woman who owns the place is horrified.

Actually Pretty Funny: In Curious George Goes to the Hospital, George wheels through the hospital in another patient's go cart. He loses control of the cart and crashes into a display of food, causing a huge mess in front of the mayor. George is at first horrified at the destruction but then he discovers that the other children are laughing. The staff and the mayor join in on the laughter, and they together decide that George shouldn't be punished.

Absent Animal Companion: At the end of Curious George Flies a Kite, Bill gives one of his baby bunnies to George as a pet and the last page shows George feeding his new baby bunny a carrot. This baby bunny doesn't appear again or is mentioned in any of the other original books.

You Must Be This Tall to Ride

comment
You Must Be This Tall to Ride: One book has George go to an amusement park but being too small ride on a roller coaster or play with bunnies in the petting zoo. He then has a dream that he grew to five times his previous size, only to find he's now too big to fit on the roller coaster and too large to play with the bunnies safely.
