Alexander Lee Price, age 2, from Wytheville, was worried about his friend, Big Bird. He didn't look very happy. "What's wrong, Big Bird?" Lee asked. "Today is Clean-Sweep Day, the day we all help clean up the neighborhood." Big Bird sighed. "It's going to be a lot of work." "Don't worry," said Lee. "Jim, Susan, and Jeff showed me you can make a big job easier by turning it into a game. Let's try it. We can pick up trash starting with each letter of the alphabet." "That'll be fun!" Big Bird smiled. So Big Bird spread the word about the great idea Lee had and the Clean-Sweep game began. (Page 3)

"Look, someone left a broken airplane here, right next to a stack of beat-up boxes," Lee said. "Amazing, that's our A and B!" "Hey, this box is full of empty cans," called Big Bird. "C is for cans!" "Cool, we can recycle them," Lee said. "Wow, we have A, B, and C already! Now let's find something that starts with D." Just then, Rosita joined them. "How about these dishes,Lee?" she asked, holding cracked dishes from her tea set. "You can have these too," she added, handing over a stack of old envelopes. "I took all the neat stamps off them." "Excellent!" said Lee. (Page 5)

By now, everyone on Sesame Street knew about the Clean-Sweep game. "Elmo wants to play, too," Elmo said with a smile, carrying as many tattered gloves and bent forks as he could manage. Elmo looked so silly Lee had to laugh. "Those are fabulous for F and your gloves will make a great G addition to our trash collection," he giggled. (Page 7)

While collecting Elmo's gloves, Lee noticed a twisted water hose lying on the sidewalk. "Watch out Big Bird!" he called. But it was too late. Poor Big Bird tripped on the hose and fell with a THUMP. Luckily, Big Bird's feathers padded his fall so he wasn't hurt. Lee ran to help him up. "I'm glad you're not hurt, Big Bird. At least you found something that started with the letter H. This hose has so many holes in it, it must be trash!" "How about using this to smooth your ruffled feathers, Bird?" snickered Oscar, handing Big Bird an old iron. "Don't be silly, Oscar! But a rusty iron is ideal for our trash pile so we'll have an I!" Lee exclaimed. (Page 9)

"Boy, I don't know what we'll use for J," Lee wondered. "I sure wish Jim, Susan, and Jeff were here to help." "Me help, Lee," Cookie Monster said. "Jars with no cookies go into trash." "Thanks, Cookie Monster! We'll put your jars in our recycling bin, instead of our trash pile," Lee said. (Page 11)
