"""[O]ffers good guides to help prepare readers for field trips and what to expect at various locations.""--School Library Journal -- (4/1/2022 12:00:00 AM)"

Familiar Sesame Street characters take readers on field trips in this series. Each title starts with a table of contents and Sesame Street characters greeting the reader at the place they are visiting using a speech bubble. One to two sentences are paired with colorful photographs to describe life in each location and what can be learned there, like exhibits at the science museum that show dinosaur skeletons from long ago (A Trip to the Science Museum). At the end of each field trip, a character asks questions, helping children connect what they have learned to what they already know. The back matter includes a glossary, though vocabulary words are not highlighted; a 'Learn More' page for further reading; and finally an index. VERDICT This series offers good guides to help prepare readers for field trips and what to expect at various locations.--School Library Journal -- Journal (4/1/2022 12:00:00 AM)
