Can't say no to that Sam I Am.

There's a Wocket in my pocket down?

That would have made it a difficult decision. Both GEAH and WIMP were very captivating books.

See, I acknowledge that Green Eggs and Ham is brilliantly written, great poetry, use of words, etc. But for me that story is as annoying as hell. I hate it when people try to push stuff on me- the salesperson at your door or on your phone, who keeps talking no matter how much you tell them you're not interested.

I must have read Green Eggs and Ham 500 times in my life. Used to read it to my kids every night before bed. It's a great story about prejudice, perseverance, and realizing you might not have everything figured out.

I thought it was a metaphor for the duality of man and his conflict between the benevolent and the malevolent.

You're totally wrong here. It is a metaphor for the duality of man and his conflict between the malevolent and the benevolent. Thought that was pretty clear.

Or someone who posts 600+ times in a thread with the same argument over and over and over....

somehow I knew somebody would write that, and I'm not surprised it's you. But the difference is I'm not following you around. You're free not to read anything I write. Don't you suppose that if the dude could put Sam I Am on ignore, he would have?

Please don't bring Sam into this. You two take it outside and leave Sam alone.

Compliments of Wikipedia, more useless Green Eggs and Ham trivia, some of which goes to tims point:

The book came about as a bet between the author and his publisher who wagered he couldn't not write a book using less that 50 different words.

The book was banned in China from 1965-1991 for its "portrayal of early Marxism"

Senator Ted Cruz read from the book as part of his 21-hour speech advocating the defunding of Obamacare.

Go Dog Go too (even if it's PD Eastman and not officially Dr Seuss).

THIS

To a Dog Par-ty!!!

A big dog party!

I must have read this one to my youngest son hundreds of times when he was little. I can still hear his belly laughs 12 years later.

Good times! and they grow up way to fast.

Sneetches. Great messages in that one.

Sneeches get Steetches?

And here I just like Seuss books because of the way they sound when you read them.

That and Green Eggs and Ham helps convince your kids to try something that they've decided they don't like without ever having tasted it before.
