Maybe he's not that curious after all
From the Associated Press...
Curious George publisher sues Jews for Jesus
(New York-AP) -- Curious George isn't affiliated with Jews for
Jesus.
So says a lawsuit filed today in federal court in New York City
by the publisher of Curious George children's books.
Houghton Mifflin accuses Jews for Jesus of stealing the
character for pamphlets distributed to pedestrians in New York
City, Minneapolis and possibly other cities.
The "Are you Curious?" pamphlets depict a cartoon monkey
reading the Bible. Readers are told, "You can't find something if
you're not willing to search. Even a silly little monkey like
George could figure that out!"
The suit seeks an injunction barring Jews for Jesus from using
Curious George. It also demands damages of at least 500-thousand
dollars.
A Jews for Jesus spokeswoman had no immediate comment.
