Green Eggs and Ham

Supposedly the result of a bet, to see if he could write a full story with the smallest amount of words. What has resulted is an ultimate set of rhyming whimsy. Dr Seuss is at his most Dr Seuss here. Again, behind the funny rhymes there is an important message to the child - you have to try things before you decide you don't like them! That being said, having actually tried green died eggs before (a university tradition for St Chad's College in Durham UK...) there is something extremely off-putting about green eggs...

Anyway, having a young daughter is proving an excellent excuse to dive into these fun children's books. This has always been one of my favourite Seuss books
