curious george

Chef Pisghetti wants to surprise Netti with a bicycle ride around Endless Park for her birthday. The only problem is, he doesn't know how to ride a bike. Lucky for him, George is an expert! So George sets out to teach Chef, starting with the four basics of bicycling: pedal, steer, balance and brake. After a bumpy start, Chef proves to be an eager student and makes great progress. George is an excellent instructor! But while practicing some of the basics in the park, Chef takes a wrong turn and finds himself hurtling downhill on a runaway bike, headed straight for the Museum. George suddenly remembers that he forgot to show Chef the fourth and final lesson... brake!! Can George help Chef master bike riding in time for Netti's birthday surprise - but first, stop him from colliding with the exhibit of fragile and priceless artifacts?? / George is amazed by Mrs. Renkins' painting of Mr. Renkins and Leslie the cow. What artistic talent! Inspired, George decides to draw a portrait of The Man with the Yellow Hat as a surprise for his friend. After Mrs. Renkins shows him that drawing a face starts with basic shapes, George notices shapes everywhere. Triangles in noses, circles in flowers - even his own house is a square! Then George gets the perfect idea. Instead of painting a small face on paper, why not use the shapes already on the house to paint a really BIG face? With a little help from Allie and Bill, and a LOT of paint, George gets to work transforming his house into The Man with the... Uh oh! Where will George find a BIG Yellow Hat?!
