Cookie Monster: (Shouting) Wow, look at all these books! Me no seen so many books before!

Librarian: Shhhh!

Cookie Monster: (Whispering) Oh, yeah, yeah, right.

(Cookie walks toward the desk, and stumbles over something. You hear a metal container falling over.)

Cookie Monster: (surprised) Whoop!

Librarian: (Quietly) Quiet, please.

Cookie Monster: (Whispering) I did not see de wastebasket.

(Librarian sort of nods, and goes back to work.)

Cookie Monster: Uh, Sir ... Sir ... (Librarian looks up) Could you tell me what you doing with all these books?

Librarian: Well, this is a library. We have all kinds of books for people to read.

Cookie Monster: Really? Well, me want book about Little Red Riding Hood.

Librarian: All right. (Gets up to go get it.)

Cookie Monster: And one box of cookies. (Starts looking around.)

Librarian: (Stops in his tracks, and looks at Cookie.) (Pleasantly) Maybe you didn't understand. You see, this is a library. We only have books; we have no cookies.

Cookie Monster: Oh, yeah, yeah, right. Well, me want book about nursery rhymes.

Librarian: All right. (starts off to get it.)
