Sesame Street Memories

Sesame Street - Abbey Road

If you’ve opened a newspaper, walked by a television, or visited the Google home page anytime in the last week, you probably already know that Sesame Street celebrates its 40th anniversary today.

Probably the most important Sesame Street moment in my life was when the grocer Mr. Hooper died. Big Bird didn’t understand what death was, and the gang had to explain it to him. It still breaks my heart.
