Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

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. (Ages 4 to 8)

Excellent replacement service and refund.
5 yr old granddaughter was thrilled to get this book.The first book I received has a few pages that the print was really blurry. So, I went through the return process, which offered replacement as an option. I choose to get a replacement and see how that would go, and the 2nd book I received is perfect!! And it was free to return the misprinted book.

The Cat in the Hat series was one of the favorite bedtime stories I had read to my children almost 50 years ago. Somewhere in storage I still have the original but my baby grandson would probably graduate college before I could find it so I purchased it new. My son is lucky in that he gets to spend a lot of quality time with his baby boy, Lucas and loves to read to him. The book came well packaged and on time. I'm sure the future holds many more memorable moments of quality time spent reading the stories of the Cat in the Hat adventures. The books are kept in a beautiful box that I labeled “Lucas’s Magical Library” so he will have them as a keepsake for his children if he is lucky enough to become a parent or just a nice memory to have of him and his father.
