On My Way with Sesame Street Video Collection

[minor muppetz]

I plan on making fan fiction outline/ scripts base don the On My Way with Sesame Street books from 1989. Each "volume" will be based on the specific volumes, and include segmnets from the show as well as new footage, but will take place in modern times rather than 1989 (so it's different from my Sesame Street Library video series scripts, which wer emeant to take place in the late 1970s). I wil post each outline in this thread, one at a time. Enjoy!
