Oscar-the-Grouch's Alphabet of Trash is a 1977 Sesame Street storybook in which Oscar the Grouch presents his grouchy version of the alphabet. Some of the letters provide glimpses into his lifestyle: D is for "dust", and Oscar dusts his furniture -- by dumping dust on to his bed and nightstand. E is for "eggshells", which Oscar puts into his bed at night "to get a crummy night's sleep". G is for "garbage", and the Garbage Grouch arrives with Oscar's weekly supply. N is for a "no-good necktie", which helped Oscar win the Worst-Dressed Grouch of the Year award.
