K-3
Adapted by C. A. Krones.
In this story, adapted from a TV teleplay, George and readers learn how maple syrup is made: from finding the right kind of tree to collecting and boiling the sap. While the text and illustrations are poor substitutes for the original books, the straightforward information has kid-appeal. The beloved character's fans will enjoy the lesson. Activity and quiz are appended.
