Book Worming

Alan, with a box of books in hand, encounters Elmo who shares that his South African friend, Zuzu, is visiting Sesame Street. Concerned that Zuzu might feel homesick, Elmo wants to bring a bit of her culture to Sesame Street. Realizing he knows little about South Africa, Alan takes him to a place where he could learn more.

They reach Frankie's Book Nook, a place where Alan donates his old books. Elmo learns that books can contain information about different cultures and places, sparking hope that they might find something about South Africa. Abby joins in the search while Alan heads to Hooper's Store. They look through several books until Elmo discovers a "World Cookbook" that includes a recipe for Zuzu's favorite dish, papa and tomato gravy. They bring the recipe to Hooper's Store where Alan agrees to cook the dish.

Elmo, meanwhile, uncovers a book about South Africa, learning about dashikis and South African music. He remembers a penguin band that plays nearby and recruits them to provide music for Zuzu, given that black-footed penguins are native to South Africa.

Once the dish is ready, Alan and Abby join Elmo who's set up a small party, complete with his own dashiki and the penguin band playing a South African song. Zuzu arrives and is moved by Elmo's efforts to make her feel at home. Interestingly, she's also read about American culture and is eager to try pizza and hamburgers, and watch a baseball game. They all then dance to the rhythm of the penguins' music.
