Love the Earth!





Love the Earth! is a Sesame Street DVD about environmental awareness, sold exclusively at Walmart and Sam's Club stores.

Papa Bear takes Baby Bear, Elmo and Zoe on a hike in Bear National Park so that they may earn a Bear Scout badge by spotting a Blue-Feathered Swallowing Swallow. Along the way, they learn about the beauty of nature and how best to take care of the Earth from the help of Park Ranger Squirrel.
