I Want to Go Home! is a 1985 Sesame Street storybook featuring Big Bird.

Big Bird goes on a trip to the beach, where his grandmother lives, but starts to feel homesick. He meets a boy named Wally there. Wally has his own special cave, which inspires Big Bird to tell him about his friend Mr. Snuffleupagus. Wally and Big Bird become friends -- playing catch in the water, digging in the sand, and sharing a popsicle every day.
