Sesame Street Superstar is a Play-a-Song storybook that spoofs the American Idol craze. The book comes with a toy microphone and karaoke machine, which plays 40 songs.

At the end of each song, the performance is rated by the panel of "judges" -- Big Bird, Oscar the Grouch and Cookie Monster.

Sample phrases include:

• Big Bird: "That was wonderful! You sing like a bird!"
• Oscar: "Hey, what's the big idea? You ruined my quiet time!"
• Cookie Monster: "If song were cookie, it would be delicious!"
