Abby Cadabby Makes A Wish

Abby Cadabby is Sesame Street's newest beloved Muppet. As a fairy-in-training, she's always practicing the magical spells she learns at Mrs. Sparkle's Flying Fairy School. But more often than not, her spells go a little bit awry. Sometimes Abby is frustrated by her mixed-up spells, but Elmo and all of her other Sesame Street friends are always delighted by what results instead. This sweet story about perseverence, self-confidence, and friendship taps into the fairy craze and will appeal to any toddler who loves Sesame Street, fairies, and make-believe, and who believes in the power of magical spells.

Abby Cadabby is feeling blue because it's her birthday—and no one remembered! Even a walk around Sesame Street with Elmo doesn't cheer Abby up. But there's something going on behind the scenes, and toddlers will figure out just before Abby does that there's a happy—and pink—surprise waiting for her right inside her own front door: Grover, Murray, Zoe, Big Bird, and Cookie Monster are giving Abby a birthday party after all!

Elmo and his pet fish, Dorothy, are the greatest of friends. Elmo takes care of her and introduces her to his other friends, including Zoe, Bert, Ernie, Big Bird, and Cookie Monster. Elmo talks to Dorothy all the time. And—glug-glug—she answers Elmo in “fish-talk”! Scattered throughout the story are descriptions of how friends help each other: they keep each other company, share new experiences, cheer each other up, take care of each other, and much more. Toddlers will be familiar with Dorothy the goldfish from the “Elmo’s World” segments on Sesame Street.

Elmo (with his mommy as spotting for safety) demonstrates a somersault, cartwheel, and tripod-into-handstand to show toddlers how much fun it can be to move around, shake things up, and get some exercise! The tone is full of energy and emphasizes enjoyment of physical activity rather than imparting a weighty message. Sturdy board pages will hold up to repeated readings, which this engaging book is sure to get.

Elmo, Big Bird, and their Sesame Street friends interact in various scenarios that give rise to emotions associated with colors, from feeling "blue" or "in the pink" to being "green with envy" or "red with embarrassment." On board pages.
