I'm looking forward to this, but I hope he talks about his other characters too, like Hoots the Owl.

I've about of this, I just didn't have any links to it. But I'm looking forward to it though. Actually, this would make his 21 year performing the character of Elmo, and Richard Hunt was his mentor, but give or take a few, I guess it's okay.

I wonder if more Muppeteers will come out with s book. First Carroll Spinney and now Kevin Clash. I love it and would like to see more biographies coming from these guys before they retire completely.

Kendra, I'll bet you are as excited about this book as I was about Carroll Spinney's book when it first came out.
