Grover and the Everything in the Whole Wide World Museum is a 1974 Sesame Street storybook.

Grover goes to a museum showcasing everything in the whole wide world. Each room is dedicated to specific categories of things such as Things You Find On a Wall and Things That Are Cute and Furry. When he thinks that he has seen all that is there, he comes to a door that leads to the outside world, and thus, everything else.

Grover speaks directly to the reader in word balloons, comic book-style. This style was used in a number of Sesame books in the early 70s, including The Monster at the End of This Book (1971), Oscar's Book (1975), Would You Like to Play Hide & Seek in This Book With Lovable, Furry Old Grover? (1976) and Big Bird's Red Book (1977).
