Sam tries to convince his friend to eat the green eggs and ham but he is sure he doesn't like it. He finally tries the dish and loves it! The book is great to encourage students to try new things. You never know if you will like something unless you try it. It would also be a fun read because we could make green eggs and ham to eat in class.  eastahlhut | Nov 4, 2009 |  Green Eggs and ham great story that is told through images and rhyming dialogues. There are two main characters. One is unnamed and the other is named Sam. The unnamed character refuses to taste the dish, insisting he would not like it. Sam finally gets him to taste it and the unknown character loves it. This is a wonderful book for beginner readers because there are easy words to read and the words rhyme. This book is one of the first books I learned to read with. (  ) JamieJohnson | Nov 2, 2009 | This book is a classic. There is a person who's name is Sam, and he is trying to get his friend to try green eggs and ham. He asks him a series of places that he could try the green eggs and ham, but the friend always tells Sam he does not like them. One day after Sam had decided he would try on more time, the friend said enough I will try the green eggs and ham. Once he tried them he really liked them and told Sam he would eat them every place that Sam had sugguested earlier in the book. ( ) abconnor1 | Nov 2, 2009 | I liked this because the words aren't crazy and are decodable. Most kids know what this book is about, but a teacher could still teach about trying new things, and of course, make green eggs and ham with his or her class. The rhyme is easy to hear and repetitive. The sentence structure is repetitive on a couple of pages too. ( ) bamabreezin4 | Nov 1, 2009 | Sam -I-Am is trying to get him to eat green eggs and ham.

Amazon.com (ISBN 0394800168, Library Binding)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.
