Book Buddies
A story about Bert and Ernie creating a story… together.
Fun, shared experiences introduce kids to the pleasure reading and writing can bring over a lifetime. Together with kids, read how Bert and Ernie make their own book. Then create some “together tales” of your own. Even a scribble can tell a story!
