Sam-I-am tries to persuade the character in the top hat to try green eggs and ham.
“Do you like green eggs and ham?” asks Sam-I-am in this Beginner Book by Dr. Seuss. In a house or with a mouse? In a boat or with a goat? On a train or in a tree? Sam keeps asking persistently. With unmistakable characters and signature rhymes, Dr. Seuss’s beloved favorite has cemented its place as a children’s classic. In this most famous of cumulative tales, the list of places to enjoy green eggs and ham, and friends to enjoy them with, gets longer and longer. Follow Sam-I-am as he insists that this unusual treat is indeed a delectable snack to be savored everywhere and in every way.

Excerpts

Green eggs and ham by Geisel, Theodor Seuss, 1904-1991

I have been much confused as to what ISBNs belong with this ''1960'' edition of ''Green Eggs and Ham.'' Finding this excerpt at https://archive.org/details/greeneggsham00geis/page/n3 has greatly helped me in the understanding and handling of the many different Dr. Seuss, ''Green Eggs and Ham'' editions (or their data), that have been and are, protected within the walls of this important open library.
