My son is a huge Sesame Street fan. He loves this book and will perform it with all the voices of the characters. It is a great book with segments just like the real show. I especially like the segment about Elmo and Zoe. These 2 best friends have a disagreement and later make up by cooperating. Cookie Monster is in the book doing his usual devouring of confections. Big Bird plays Journey to Ernie with some cute illustrations of animals in the jungle that resemble Ernie. Grover hosts the show and also does a segment on Eskimos (Global Grover). Rosita does a Spanish word of the day, and Elmo celebrates friends in Elmo's World. If this book has a theme, it is "friendship." As a parent, I feel this book gave me more "bang for my buck" than many others because it is packed with fun lessons and gives my kid good material for play.

My daughter picked this book out herself in the bookstore because she was attracted to the colorful cover with all the Sesame Street gang. Since then, she asks me to read it to her all the time. She loves turning the pages and finding the different illustrations and styles on each page. She loves reading this book more than watching the show! This way, she can skip to the parts she likes the best. I can't wait for the publishers to publish some more editions! I will definately buy more in the series.

Grover is your host as he takes you through an "episode" of Sesame Street. He asks your child to turn the pages and listen as he takes you through the different segments such as "Journey to Ernie" and "Elmo's World". It is a very neat book that reminds me a lot of an old favorite written when I was a child "Monster at the End of This Book" which also included Grover.

I thought my 4 year old daughter had outgrown Sesame Street but she has re-discovered it through this bright and vivid book that is just right for her age.

My only complaint is that the book leads you to believe that there are more books to come and as far as I know, this is the only one the series that was published since 2004.

Ms. nearly-2 is a big Sesame Street fan,and likes the pictures. But there is too much text on each page for reading out loud - she gets impatient before I can finish the page. Probably this book will be good when her attention span is a few years older.
