The board books Who Took the Cookie?, illus. by Tom Brannon and What's in Oscar's Trash Can? by Lisa Findlay, illus. by Joe Ewers, are just for fun. The first offers a twist on the well-known rhyme ("Who took the cookie from Cookie's jar? Bert took the cookie from Cookie's jar!"); five treats disappear and Bert, Zoe, Grover and Oscar are suspected of stealing. In the second title, Oscar searches for his worm, Slimey, while flaps lift to let readers join the fun. (June)

From the Inside Flap
What?s in Oscar?s trash can? Plenty?in fact, there?s so much that no one would believe something that looks so small on the outside has so much stuff inside. Oscar is having no luck finding his pet worm, Slimey, in all that crowded mess. Oscar?s Sesame Street pals come by to help, and their suggestions about where to look will prompt kids to lift the flaps on each spread to see if Slimey is hiding underneath. There are lots of surprises and lots of giggles as kids try to spot Slimey somewhere in the spread and then discover what?s really under the flaps.
