This is my absolute favorite Dr. Seuss book! I do storytelling for children. I read to children at the public library and in their school classrooms, preschool and K -2 for outreach programs. I can always draw the kids together with this book. I get very dramatic when I state that "I DO NOT LIKE GREEN EGGS AND HAM". I made up hand gestures to go with parts of the book. When I read "I do not like them here", I point at someone in the crowd. Then I point at someone totally different when I say "I do not like them there". Together we all exclaim "I do NOT like them anywhere". It is just such a wonderful book for children to participate with the storyteller on. I love the simple rhyming in this book. There aren't any hard words for the children. Everyone knows what a box and a fox is. Everyone (for the most part) eats ham and eggs. It's easy for the children to join in as they can remember the simple rhymes. At the end of the story, it is so much fun to make green eggs and ham to eat.
