For 55 years, Sesame Street has welcomed all children to learn and play with our furry friends, friendly monsters, and warm and gentle grown-ups.
Everyone has a place on Sesame Street and has since our first episode premiered on November 10th, 1969. Happy #SesameStreetDay

From author James Ponti:
“Never before has it been more important to get books into the hands of young readers. Books that can inspire. Books that demonstrate compassion and empathy. Books that let the marginalized know that they are seen and loved. We can make that happen.” 💕
