Sesame Street Treasury #9
The Sesame Street Treasury, Volume 9: Starring The Number 9 And The Letters M, N, And O
Sesame Street Muppets starring the Number 9 and the letters M, N and O.
The Sesame Street Treasury was a series of books sold in supermarkets consisting of fifteen volumes published in 1983 by Funk & Wagnalls. Using the usual writers and artists, each entry was a collection of stories and activities, most carried over from The Sesame Street Library, various books in the Sesame Street Storybooks series, and The Sesame Street Cookbook, among others. Excerpts from Linda Bove's Sign Language Fun and The Sesame Street 1981 Mother Goose Calendar were included in each volume.
In contrast to the earlier Library collection, each cover featured a View-Master photograph instead of a Joe Mathieu illustration. New material, found in every issue, included one-page character profiles (art by Mary Grace Eubank) and a two-page "Say it in Spanish!" feature (illustrated by Maggie Swanson). A handful of original stories were also included.
The inside covers placed characters in a square pattern arranged amongst the letters of the alphabet and the last page always featured Oscar and Big Bird commentary; art in both cases was by Joe Mathieu.

My rating for this would be a 3.5.
Twelve different illustrators and 10 writers join forces to produce a set of books with varied stories, styles and approaches but that somehow all seem to align within the same property. Clear, entertaining and easy-to-understand educational content. What's not to like?
***Nod to Joe Mathieu - one of my childhood inspirations - whose very recognizable work appears in this volume!

this was the best of the bunch so far. the stories aren't too long. I like that the dragon story was non violent and showed problem solving skills. there was a great section on Spanish and ASL.
