Amazon.com Review This timeless Dr. Seuss classic was first published in 1960, and has been delighting readers ever since. Sam-I-am is as persistent as a telemarketer, changing as many variables as possible in the hopes of convincing the nameless skeptic that green eggs and ham are a delicacy to be savored. He tries every manner of presentation with this "nouveau cuisine"--in a house, with a mouse, in a box, with a fox, with a goat, on a boat--to no avail. Then finally, finally the doubter caves under the tremendous pressure exerted by the tireless Sam-I-am. And guess what? Well, you probably know what happens, but even after reading Green Eggs and Ham the thousandth time, the climactic realization that green eggs and ham are "so good, so good, you see" is still a rush. As usual, kids will love Dr. Seuss's wacky rhymes and whimsical illustrations--and this time, they might even be so moved as to finally take a taste of their broccoli. (Ages 4 to 8)

Dr. Seuss is one of the best authors that ever lived and one of his best books is Green Eggs and Ham. Sam I ams little annoying person is trying to get Sam I am to eat green eggs and ham with different animals and different places. This book rhymed a lot which made it cool. It is great for kids. IT kept me interested to see f he actually ate them. Also the pictures were amazing they had a lot of color. This is a great kids book it rhymed a lot. So I think you should read it.
Flaps were glued down and the story was cut short. October 8, 2009 E. Wong 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We love this classic story. This particular edition of it, though, was not produced very well. Many of the flaps were glued down during production, so when we first read through it, lifting the flaps would cause a lot of tearing. We can't read many of the words because of that. Also, the story was changed from the original. Some parts were cut out so that the text would fit within the design of the flaps and pictures. Our kids seem to like it despite these shortcomings. I would recommend getting the normal edition.
Good introductory book for preschoolers August 15, 2009 Grandmum Green Eggs and Ham - Dr. Suess is the best. My grand kids love going through Dr. Suess series. Never get enough of them - very useful set.
the ultimate dr. seuss book August 3, 2009 mamallama8 Green Eggs and Ham is the ultimate Dr. Seuss classic. I have yet to meet a child who hasn't fallen in love with the goofy illustrations and rhyming text! They beg to hear it again and again and soon they can recite it!
Dr. Seuss books are wonderful for learning speech, as the rhyming sounds help a toddler's brain learn language, and it is an excellent book for pre-reading children. They say a child needs to hear a thousand books read to the child before learning to read, and this should definitely be one of those books. But watch out...your child may ask to hear Green Eggs and Ham a thousand times!
Forty years and counting... July 15, 2009 Dorothy Coakley (Berkeley/Port Townsend) Forty years ago my daughter taught herself to read with this book. Its still here and so is she. And of course, so are countless other adults who also learned their primary skills with Dr. Seuss.
Hint to librarians everywhere:
Kensington Library, in Northern California, makes jello "green eggs" for their annual Seuss festival. (Shhh...pass it on!)
