Review Quotes: "This new four-book series uses beloved characters to present lessons that will be familiar and useful to any who reads them. Teamwork, helping others, gift giving and receiving, activities with friends, and the wonder of magic are accessible themes for most children regardless of age or location in the world. One of Sesame Street's greatest strengths is its universal readability. Though these books are written at a level where young children could enjoy them independently, the series feels like it would work best for sharing between caregiver and child. For new readers who are advancing beyond the basics, the vocabulary will help guide them to the next level. VERDICT Sesame Street and its life lessons are timeless. Share this series with anyone who could use some magic and wonder in their life."-- "School Library Journal"
