Making her debut in the animated special “Furry Friends Forever: Elmo Gets a Puppy,” premiering on HBO Max on Aug. 5 and on PBS Kids in 2022, is Tango, Elmo’s new puppy.

To celebrate, Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind “Sesame Street,” is introducing new books, stories and more featuring the red Muppet and his new four-legged friend.

“’Sesame Street’ is a neighborhood filled with friends who help teach invaluable life lessons to both children and adults,” says Gabriela Arenas, vice president of global licensing, Sesame Workshop. “The ‘Sesame Street’ Muppets are kids’ first pals and show them that friendships come in all shapes, sizes and colors. We’re so pleased that Tango has joined the family and can’t wait to have the world get to know her through these new offerings.”

Families can also expect to see more Tango books from Random House Children’s Books, Lerner Publishing Group and Bendon; organic toddler snacks from Earth’s Best; custom apparel and pillowcases from CPS; T-shirts from Trevco; apparel from Children’s Apparel Network; toddler bedding and nap mats from NoJo; toddler footwear from SG Companies and customized products from Zazzle.
