Suzuki Beane

Suzuki Beane is a 1961 book by Sandra Scopettone and illustrated by Louise Fitzhugh (who later authored Harriet the Spy). Fashioned to resemble a children's book and parodying the Eloise series, the book was aimed at adults and centered on the child of Greenwich Village beatniks who befriends a rich square.

*Grover, trying to cheer up a despondent Maria in Sesame Street Episode 0897, brings a joke book, actually a copy of Suzuki Beane. Grover proceeds to read a joke about a goat who has no nose ("How does he smell?" "Terrible") despite the absence of any and all goats in Suzuki Beane.
