A cleverly written book with a variety of poems, riddles, a tongue-twister and a mystery story, all featuring Sesame Street Muppets!

Prairie Dawn’s Upside-Down Poem and Other Nonsense from Seasame Street
The title couldn’t have said it better. Pretty self-explanatory. It’s a book of poems and stories.
My Thoughts:
Pretty cute poems. These are the ones I like best
Big Bird’s Rhyme (because sometimes you have that itch but just the words get stuck in your brain)
Oscar’s Poem (Oscar just always makes me laugh for some reason. Is it weird I see myself in him? Just a smidge)
Side note: One of them thinks Oscar’s riddles are bad, but Ernie’s are just as bad. Example On what side of the house does the sunshine? Answer: The outside. UH DUH. That’s not a riddle. That’s a FACT!
Nice Things I Could Think Of To Write Down before I Ran Out of Paper (just for the mention of penguins and polar bears).
Prairie Dawn’s Upside Down Poem: (gives you just a little non-sense abstractness to chew on)
LOVE how Oscar shuts it down at the end.
