Notes[]

  • The cover artwork for this book was used on the original VHS release of Three Sesame Street Stories in 1985, although it is not one of the three stories. Illustrations of Little Bird (and a couple of shots of Big Bird) were taken from the 1983 version of the book, as well as I Think That It Is Wonderful, and added to the Everyone Makes Mistakes story (both also illustrated by A. Delaney), to pad it out to an extended length with dialogue between Big Bird and Little Bird.
