A hilarious Sesame Street story about a runaway Easter egg--with stickers, an Easter card game, and a poster!

It's Easter on Sesame Street and Elmo and his friends are decorating a float for the parade when they find a very pretty, very BIG egg—a perfect centerpiece for the float. But every time they turn around, the egg has disappeared! This sweet, wacky story will have girls and boys ages 2 to 5 giggling along with Elmo, Big Bird, Grover Cookie Monster, Abby Cadabby, Zoe, Julia, and Oscar the Grouch.
