Sesame Street Content Arrives on Epic!

REDWOOD CITY/NEW YORK: Epic! has teamed up with Sesame Workshop to bring Sesame Street content to its subscribers for the first time.

Beginning immediately, a collection of Sesame Street audio-enabled “read-to-me” books and a range of learning-based short-form content will be added to the library of e-books and educational videos already available to subscribers of the content and learning platform for kids 12 and under. The 12 e-books and 33 short videos being added to Epic! cover a broad sampling of Sesame Street content.

Epic! subscribers will have access to favorite books such as The ABCs of Cookies, Elmo Visits the Dentist and Monsters in the Bathroom, as well as videos, including Super Grover 2.0, People in Your Neighborhood and Elmo’s Got the Moves. The new Sesame Street material is included in Epic!’s regular $4.99 monthly subscription price.

“We’re thrilled to add this treasure trove of wonderful Sesame Street books, songs and videos to our award-winning library for children,” said Kevin Donahue, co-founder of Epic! “Developing a love of reading and learning in children while keeping it fun and engaging has always been our focus. And now we have Elmo, Grover and the rest of Sesame Street to help us do it!”

“Sesame Workshop’s recipe for success lies in combining our research-driven curriculum with the sophisticated use of media and the latest technology,” said Jennifer A. Perry, the VP and publisher of North America media products at Sesame Workshop. “We’re excited to make Sesame Street content available to an audience as passionate about education and reading books as Epic! subscribers are.”
