Possibly one of my favorite sets of book illustrations and the artist's name isn't even listed, all just to keep up with the gag of the story! Just says it was told by the muppet Betty Lou from the story.

I love vintage illustration artwork and some of the best comes from these drawings in old children's books.
Here is a set of artwork from the Sesame Street story Cookie Monster and the Cookie Tree.
If you would like to see more of the vintage illustrated book artwork I have, you can check out the collection for sale in my eBay Store here!
The artwork in this book was illustrated by Joe Mathieu who actually did many books and drawings for Sesame Street.
The story in this book starts out with a witch in the forest who has a talking tree that grows cookies.
Of course, as you guessed from the title Cookie Monster finds the tree.
I really do dig the pencil outline style of this artwork.
And check out the drawing of the witch in the background above.
The action poses drawn in these illustrations are also what really appeals to me in this artwork.
Some of the other Sesame Street characters show up in the book drawings like The Count, Bert, Prairie, Grover, and Oscar the Grouch.
Then don't forget the backs of these vintage illustrated children's books that all of us know by heart!
