By Dianna Dilworth 

Sesame Workshop has partnered with Running Press for a new series of books based on Sesame Street characters.

With the new license, Running Press will release several books and special products. The first will be A Very Elmo Christmas, a special edition of two popular Elmo stories, that drops this fall. The printing will come with holiday stickers and a Christmas countdown poster. The next edition in the series will be The Goodnight Elmo Kit, a bedtime kit including an Elmo nightlight and a mini storybook, which drops in February 2017.

The two companies will put out a number of other projects together in 207. This includes: Sesame Street I Can Do It!: A Treasury of Stories in April and a new picture book in Fall 2017.
