Description

When Sam-I-am persits in pestering a grumpy grouch to eat a plate of green eggs and ham, perseverance wins the day, teaching us all that we cannot know what we like until we have tried it! With his unique combination of hilarious stories, zany pictures and riotous rhymes, Dr. Seuss has been delighting young children and helping them learn to read for over fifty years. Creator of the wonderfully anarchic Cat in the Hat, and ranked among the UK's top ten favourite children's authors, Seuss is firmly established as a global best-seller, with nearly half a billion books sold worldwide. As the first step in a major rebrand programme, HarperCollins is relaunching 17 of Dr. Seuss's best-selling books, including such perennial favourites as The Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham and Fox in Socks. In response to consumer demand, the bright new cover designs incorporate much needed guidance on reading levels, with the standard paperbacks divided into three reading strands -- Blue Back Books for parents to share with young children, Green Back Books for budding readers to tackle on their own, and Yellow Back Books for older, more fluent readers to enjoy. Green Eggs and Ham belongs to the Green Back Book range.

  • Do I really have to tell you about this book? If this doesn't teach you a) how to rhyme and b) to open your mind, I can't help you.

  • Sam wants his friend to try green eggs and ham. His friend say, "he will not like them in a house.. or a box.. nor with a fox". After much convincing Sam's friend finally tries green eggs and ham and in the end he loves them.

  • This is one of the most popular and notable pieces of American children's literature, and for a good reason. Seuss is the master of rhyme and making a subject approachable for children. I read this story multiple times as a child and never tired of it.

  • Sam I Am tries to convince a friend to try green eggs and ham. After insisting throughout the story that he does not like them, the friend finally tries them only to find that he does, in fact, like them. This would be a great way to introduce a discussion about trying new things.
