A heart felt message on the importance of buying oatmeal and helping your friends with eating disorders cleanup after themselves....
I think this was one of the first books I read when I was a baby. I love when Cookie Monster eats all those cookies! What a naughty monster!
Rereading this was like being transported back to my own childhood. I don't know why this specific Sesame Street story stands out in my memory, but the string tied around Burt's finger is something I distinctly remember from this book. I love that Cookie Monster makes a messy appearance and that there's so much content in this book besides the story; you can reread it hundreds of times with kids and interact with it in many different ways.

This was my favorite Sesame Street book as a kid. I was very excited to find it at a used-book store for $2 a few years ago.
Identifying all the stuff at the grocery store was always a lot of fun. Cookie Monster's cookies always looked really yummy too, even if I had no idea what the heck a macaroon was as a five-year-old. (I'll admit it: I don't think I knew what a macaroon was until I was 20.) I did always feel bad for the grocery store people who had to clean up after Cookie Monster's mess.

This is a good word book to read aloud to a child, although it was not a favorite with my children. Bert forgets the oatmeal in this book, which teaches the importance of making a list before going grocery shopping and also names many common items found at a supermarket for your child to learn. This book is cute and colorful and Bert and Ernie are as quirky as ever!
I like this book a lot. Ok, so it's a little overly wordy. OK, so Cookie Monster goes a little crazy chomping down on the various foods. It's still a rock-solid Sesame Street gotta love those guys Bert and Ernie book.

I like sesame street characters and this word book can help children identify some grocery store items. For children who need a challenging reading book this is the one. It is funny too how Ernie always get Bert in one way or the other they still forgot the oatmeal.
I had this one as a kid and remembered it fondly. This was funnier than Ernie Gets Lost and I like it because I like grocery stores lol
This was one of my favorite books as a child. Whenever I was in the doctors office with my mom I always read this book. It was a great comfort to me. I will always love it.
D. loves this book -we read it almost every day... to the point where I could recite it :)
