Welcome to Muppet Wiki!
Who's Who on Sesame Street is a collection of Sesame Street coloring books featuring portraits of both cast members and Muppets. The first edition was published in 1977.
Most pages devote an entire page to either a single character or a group, with their name spelled inside an outline of the Sesame Street street sign placed at the bottom of the portrait. Other pages feature characters in various situations, or activity pages. Since the Sesame Street cast is always changing (and due to the large amount of featured characters), the coloring book has been published several times, adding more characters and dropping others.

The 1989 edition is also illustrated by Joe Mathieu, but some of the character's pages are redone to reflect the cast ages and Muppet's designs. (For example, Big Bird's original illustration featured the bird with a somewhat trapezoid-shaped head of feathers; the redrawn version gives Big Bird a more rounded head.)
