Take me down to Sesame Street
Only 3 years old, Abby Cadabby is brand new on the scene and ready to share her adventures and stories with the rest of Sesame Street gang. Watch as Abby goes on new adventures while she discovers her magical powers and uses her magic with her new friends.
She can speak a language called Dragonfly, and is teaching Rosita the language, while Rosita teaches her Spanish.[1] Along with new friend Baby Bear, Abby is starting school, attending the Storybook Community School, where Mrs. Goose is the teacher. Abby was set to be featured as "Person of the Week" on ABC World News Tonight on Friday, August 11th, however her segment wasn't aired that evening; it was broadcast August 18th.[2] She is the first Muppet to earn the honor, possibly the first non-human. She was also set to appear on a "satellite-tour" of local stations that day, and on The Today Show on Monday, August 14th.[3]

Abby Cadabby's Magical Powers
Abby's magical powers are limited to popping in and out of thin air, floating when she's happy, and turning things into pumpkins. Her magic word, "allerednic," is Cinderella backwards. Although familiar with the world of fairy tales, Abby is astounded by such basic learning skills as drawing letters or counting, prompting her catchphrase "That's so magic!"
