All-New Collectors’ Edition C-60

Even if lawns have already been mowed, pools filled and travel plans made, today is officially the start of Summer.

Rudolph is a fish out of water as he and Grover hit The Open Road (Act One) for a vacation.

The top is always down for the duo as they pedal their way across the USA on a bicycle built for two. The difference being this two-wheeled conveyance is propelled by a propeller allowing them a bird’s eye view of their trip.

All-New Collectors’ Edition C-60

All is well until they meet fellow traveler Mr. Cat. The felonious feline fleeces his new-found friends, but is brought into the fold by Rudy and Grover who forgive and forget.

Mr. Cat joins them as they pedal their way to New York City to see the Statue of Liberty. They lose their companion while Rudolph earns a commendation for seeing a ferryboat to safety during a storm.

Homeward Bound…But… is the final act with the two on a sailboat.

The famous reindeer is detoured by a well-meaning fan to visit other admirers on Animal Island.

The warm welcome is brought to an abrupt halt by an ongoing war when both factions confront each other. Rudolph is able to defuse the situation and set matters right.

With yet another medal strung around his neck, Rudolph steers he and Grover north and home.

Readers are treated to eight pages – and the back cover – of fun and games. First up is a game repeating the hero’s ocean voyage.

Other fun stuff includes Grover and friend demonstrating a paper trick, story participants tell jokes and riddles, readers must find Grover’s twin, more paper tricks, a quiz game, directions on how to build a periscope, connect-the-dots and coloring page.

The outside back page offers a table-top diorama like many of the previous Limited Collectors’ editions. This one features the statue of liberty with Rudolph and Grover on their chopper bike.
