Add a CommentOne of my favorite books ever - deserves a Nobel prize.
Have you ever tried green eggs and ham?
Lovely read!
Rhyming text and pattern make this book an all round favorite.
Sam kept asking if he would eat it. Bailey, Age 7
I like it because it is funny. Esmeralda, age 8.
An absolute classic. Perfect for new readers. A really small vocabulary used really effectively. Great rhythm, great rhyme. Hard to fault. Great to read out loud. Love it.
A classic Seuss tale featuring Sam-I-Am and his reluctant companion who refuses to try green eggs and ham.
One of Seuss' best. Simple vocabulary, amusing story, lilting rhymes.
I love Dr. Seuss' funny sense of humor and all those colorful words he uses to portray books of hilarity, just like this one.
No green eggs and ham for me, thank you.
