Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
This triple play by Dr. Seuss is more like a grand slam, for Seussophiles of every age will like Green Eggs and Ham. Each illustration from Seuss's original book fills the screen as his singsong rhymes are read verbatim. Playful music, spinning wheels, popping bubbles, and the occasional floating character add just enough rhythm and motion to create a "movie" feel for the show's toddler-aged audience. Two additional stories follow suit: "Ten Apples Up on Top!" and "The Tooth Book." The former teaches counting and the latter dentistry; of course Green Eggs and Ham teaches "try it, and you'll see!" Talented narrators read each tale with earnest flair, taking about 20 minutes to complete the show. And while no movie beats a book, this charming trio is so close to the real thing, few could argue its merits. --Liane Thomas

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointment, August 15, 2002

By A Customer

I have been looking for the Dr. seuss video's in a dvd format for a long time, so I was very excited when I saw them advertised on Amazon.com. I was very disappointed to find that they were not the videos I remember watching on television as a child. I ordered The Cat in the hat, Green eggs and ham and ABC. I was not happy with any of them. I also ordered How the Grinch Stole Christmas, which is the video and not an animated book.

1.0 out of 5 stars shameful, June 24, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Dr. Seuss - Green Eggs and Ham [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you've ever enjoyed the original Seuss classics on TV you will be disappointed with these. I made the mistake of not reading the reviews and only looked at amazons' star rating they put beside the product pic. It's supposed to represent the reviewer's ratings but when I read these ratings(after the fact), there was only one positive from some ol' gramps... Of course the return policy dosen't allow me to return after the precious plastic wrap had been removed! ....

1.0 out of 5 stars A big disappointment, November 11, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Dr. Seuss - Green Eggs and Ham [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video was not animated like the classic Chuck Jones features such as "The Cat In The Hat" and "The Grinch". My daughter was rather disappointed to see the camera scanning over pages of the books she already owns along with paper cutouts of the characters floating around as a cheap replacement for animation. We give this video a thumbs down.
