In 1940, Hans and Margret Rey fled their Paris home as the
German army advanced. They began their harrowing journey on
bicycles, pedaling to Southern France with children’s book
manuscripts among their few possessions. Louise Borden
combed primary resources, including Hans Rey’s pocket
diaries, to tell this dramatic true story. Archival
materials introduce readers to the world of Hans and Margret
Rey while Allan Drummond dramatically and colorfully
illustrates their wartime trek to a new home. Follow the
Rey’s amazing story in this unique large format book that
resembles a travel journal and includes full-color
illustrations, original photos, actual ticket stubs and
more. A perfect book for Curious George fans of all ages.
