For those of you who are REALLY interested in Sesame Street....
The World According to Sesame Street is out of print, but available in many libraries - a terrific overview of The Children's Television Workshop, and Sesame Street abroad. Sesame Street is seen in many countries, and they try to tailor their show to address the cultural needs and interests of the country in which it is shown. A fascinating look at a non-violent show, in some areas where children already know much violence at a young age.
Our favorite episodes of Shalom Sesame are in Vol. 1 - we enjoy "barbazoni" (rubber duckie) in Hebrew! Also hosted by Itzhack Perlman.
