Luis tells Big Bird a bedtime story about an enormous egg and the surprise it contained when it hatched.

This story goes back and forth between the present and the past. Mya is a modern-day girl living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with her mom. Her mom has a shop and makes dance costumes. Mya loves to dance and takes ballet at a studio with her friends. One day the classroom teacher announces that the school will close because a terrible virus, called Covid, is spreading through the country. More bad news soon follows. In 1918, Elsa lived in Philadelphia. She lived in the same house as Mya. Elsa shared the home with her mother, father and grandmother. They had come to America from Germany.

Designed for non-English speaking children to help them develop listening and speaking skills. The philosophy of Open Sesame is twofold: BICS (Basic interpersonal communicative skills) focuses on everyday communication, listening, and speaking ability. CALP (Cognitive academic language proficiency) focuses on cognitive skills needed for learning in any language.

Bill Warren's Keep Watching the Skies! was originally published in two volumes, in 1982 and 1986. It was then greatly expanded in what we called the 21st Century Edition, with new entries on several films and revisions and expansions of the commentary on every film. In addition to a detailed plot synopsis, full cast and credit listings, and an overview of the critical reception of each film, Warren delivers richly informative assessments of the films and a wealth of insights and anecdotes about their making. The book contains 273 photographs (many rare, 35 in color), has seven useful appendices, and concludes with an enormous index. This book is also available in softcover format (ISBN 978-1-4766-6618-1).

Big Bird and his Muppet friends introduce a collection of stories, poems, puzzles, recipes, crafts, and games.
