This is a real cookbook. The recipes are simple enough for children to follow (say, 8-12, or older), but they're not bland and boring recipes. They are mostly from scratch and with good ingredients. They are appealing to children but appropriate for adult tastes as well. Did I mention that they also are named after foods in Dr. Seuss books? With quotes and illustrations from the texts, and explanations for the recipes, this is a great choice for a cook who also likes Dr. Seuss. If you get it for a non-cook, they'll enjoy the pictures, but they may not cook much from it.
I loved this book! I must say that I have never in this world thought about using a cooking instead of a graham cracker. Something so simple just got kicked up to a whole different level. I really like the coconut shrimp from Jedd's Bed of Shrimp. I absolutely love shrimp and cannot wait to remake this recipe in my own home. Also the moose drink sounds pleasant as well. That may just be a new party favorite of mine depending on if I can correctly recreate it. I absolutely loved how the author had little snippets of poems about the recipes it was such a cute little added fun. Loved it!
Recommended for every teacher who has a collection of Dr. Seuss's books in the classroom library. A very good collection of recipes that come from Dr. Seuss's widely acclaimed books. The recipes are extraordinarily entertaining and should be fed in the classroom with the students while reading one of Dr. Seuss's children books. I was really shocked to see that he has a book on recipes but it will d.o no harm to have it. I enjoyed every bit of this. My favorite recipe in this book is called, Jedd's Bed of Shrimp.
It's hard to rate a cookbook. Especially when it has nothing in it Ill actually cook.

I bought this book simply because it was Dr. Seuss and that was it. I thought it was funny.

The recipes all sound weird and I don't think I would eat any of them. The only thing that makes them Dr. Seuss related is the custom made bowls and dishes used to display them. They aren't going to look like that when someone else makes them.

This is just a book that's going to sit on my shelf and make people laugh. It's not going to be used for it's intended purpose.
Little cooks will delight in these recipes inspired by Dr. Seuss' classic children's stories. Recipe categories include Breakfast, Beverages, Lunch, Snacks, Dinner, and Desserts. Kids will surely want to try such concoctions as Green Eggs and Ham, Cat's Mac and Cheese, Yot in the Pot, Who-Roast Beast, and Who-Pudding. Recommended for the young and the young at heart.
Adorable and very creative! The pictures and descriptions are very fun to look at and children seem to love it.
Not only will young chefs learn the secret ingredient to making Green Eggs and Ham, they will also be able to browse this cookbook for recipes like Pink Yink Ink Drink, Zans' Cans Chili, and Who-Roast-Beast. Each recipe is accompanied by illustrations and rhymes from the Dr. Seuss book that inspired the concoction.

First words
I've always wondered what green eggs and ham would really taste like and what Dr. Seuss had in mind when he concocted them.
