 Fabulous for reading out loud! November 24, 2008
The tale of a picky eater this goofy book has a sing song-y sound, bright art and an a sense of over the top that kids love.
 Not sturdy enough. November 6, 2008
I love the book Green Eggs and Ham. I bought the BOARD BOOK for my 2 year old to enjoy. With all of the flaps it was not sturdy enough and within 24 hours the book was ripped to shreads from opening and closing the flaps. He loved the book. I don't think he was exceptionally rough. Due to his lack of fine motor skills he worked the flaps and caused the rips. We have no other board books that were ripped to shreds from normal use. Board books are for toddlers not preschoolers that have a concept of books.
 Classic for a reason! July 4, 2008
We all know this book, no need for me to re-iterate the plot.
What makes it work, though, is that Dr. Seuss understood the importance of breaking the rules - something many of his imitators never grasp. He didn't stick to a rhyme scheme or a meter all the time, he varied it and dropped it when needed. That makes his books readable instead of mind-numbing - even when you're reading them for the 1000th time straight :)
The Greatest American Philosopher May 12, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
As a mom of a 24 and an 8 year old (I know . . . big surprise) I am firmly of the opinion that Dr. Seuss is the greatest American philosopher! In this book he urges us to try things that we may be afraid of or even repelled by. Many folks think this book applies only to food but I think he is urging us to be more brave in all avenues of life. We need to listen to those around us urging us expand our horizons. I believe that if we go for it and 'take a bite of the egg and ham' then we too will say "Thank you, thank you Sam-I-am."
Fun for kids and adults! May 12, 2008

I forgot how much I loved this book until I began reading it for my 3-year-old. She loves it, and I love reading it to her (unlike the ELMO books which our daughter loves and I dread). You really can't go wrong with Dr. Seuss. The illustrations are imaginative and the writing is really a work of genius in children's literature. I can't recommend this highly enough.
