Favorite Sesame Street Books

[AndyWan Kenobi]

Hi everyone,

I was just wondering what some of you remember as your favorite Sesame Street books. When I was little we had a ton of Sesame Street books, and I loved them so much! I would read them over and over. I especially liked

The Monster at the End of This Book
Cookie Monster and the Cookie Tree
Grover and the Museum of Everything

Does anyone else remember these? What are some of your favorites?

I remember the Monster At The End Of This Book. The last page used to scare me though because Grover had his hands over his head saying "Oh I am so embarrassed." and it looked like he had long ears all of a sudden.

I remember The Monster At The End Of This Book.Another one I remember was The Together Book.There was also a storybook version of Who Are The People In Your Nieghborhood?.The only thing I can remember from that book,was Bert getting a haircut at the barber shop,which made him completely bald.Two books I remember having during my childhood days,were Bert's Great Hall Of Inventions,which involved one of the many times that Ernie drove Bert up the wall.The other book I had was The Circle Book,which starred Harry Monster and Cookie Monster.Harry appeared as straight man to Cookie Monster's endless and hilarious greed of eating almost anything that was a circle.Including cookies of course.

Grover and the Museum of Everything was a really cool book. Grover was your guide through this museum, and it had some really crazy stuff in it. The only thing I really remember was that Grover kept wanting to see "everything else." At the end of the book, the museum had a sign saying "everything else" over the exit into the rest of the world. I always thought that was neat.

monster at the end of this book was my TOTAL fave! I wonder if they're re-releasing it. I especially loved the last page when grover says "i am so embarrassed." I didn't get the rabbit reference someone else talked about, but if they're re-releasing it, I would buy it on the spot.

I'm pretty sure you can still get that book. It's one of those perennial Sesame Street Little Golden Books that stays in print. My mom got me a copy at the Sesame Street General Store about 10 years ago, and I've seen them in stores since.

I loved "Grover Goes to School" (I think that was the title) sooo much when I was a little kid...if I only knew what happened to my copy...

Don't Forget The Oatmeal

I always liked Don't Forget The Oatmeal from the Sesame Street Book Club in the early 80's. It's the one where and go shopping and run into Cookie Monster. After helping Cookie Monster with his shopping, they naturally forget the oatmeal. I know it's around the house somewhere, but it's the one I haven't been able to find. I also liked Alphabet Soup where and teach Cookie Monster how to make a healthy alphabet soup. Cookie is so hungry at the end, he gobbles down the whole pot. Anyone else remember the book club?
