Oscar's New Neighbor

Oscar's New Neighbor is a 1992 Sesame Street Little Golden Book in which Oscar the Grouch meets a new neighbor, Germaine the Grouch.

Germaine, or Germie for short, moves her trash can across the street from Oscar's trash can, who immediately falls in love.

Oscar's infatuation initially overshadows his innate grumpiness, as he does everything to please her and Germaine assumes he's not a true Grouch. After a frustrated Oscar finally loses his temper and starts behaving like himself again, Germaine is impressed and the pair have a junkyard picnic of cabbage-ade and sardine and jelly sandwiches.
