Children and Television: Lessons from Sesame Street

This book gives an early production history of Sesame Street, and presents analysis and criticism of the research and pedagogical approaches used by the show and CTW. Considered a classic book on television and children, it provides a thorough description of the CTW Model for children's television.

Included in the book are sketches by Maurice Sendak from early development seminars for Sesame Street.

The author, Gerald S. Lesser, was the chairman of the CTW Board of Trustees from 1969-1996.
