"Would you eat them in a box? Would you eat them with a fox?"

This timeless Dr. Seuss classic has been delighting readers since 1960. Sam-I-am never gives up trying to convince his friend that green eggs and ham are a tasty treat. He tries everything - in a house, with a mouse, in a box, with a fox, with a goat, on a boat - to no avail. Then finally, finally his friend caves in... and tries them. And guess what? "I do so like Green Eggs and Ham!" Kids will love Dr. Seuss's wacky rhymes and whimsical illustrations. And who knows, now they may even be willing to taste their broccoli.

New features only available in this omBook include professional narration, background audio and digital artwork for each scene. To promote reading in young children, individual words are highlighted as the story is read and words zoom up when pictures are touched. By combining the original text and artwork of Dr. Seuss with features that entertain and promote reading, this omBook appeals to readers of all ages.

Three ways to read this omBook (Oceanhouse Media digital book):
★ "Read to Me" — listen to the narrated story with words highlighted as they are read
★ "Read it Myself" — read the book in its traditional form
★ "Auto Play" — plays like a movie, automatically reading and turning pages. Great for younger children!

Additional Features:
★ Picture / Word association — words zoom up and are spoken when pictures are touched
★ Individual words highlight and are read aloud when tapped
★ Professional audio narration
★ Custom background audio for each scene

    Fun for the new reader

    My 6 year old daughter is loving her new found reading skills. Being a very independant child has made it difficult for us to help her with reading. She now reads to me and if she has a problem with a word, she just touches it for the pronunciation. This has been a great reading tool.

    Love!

    Love this book! I really like that the words are highlighted as they're being read. The sound effects add a great emphasis to the story. My 23 month old daughter would read this story all day long if she could have it her way!!

    A classic and read to me features are fun.

    If you/ your child want to follow the story (auto play) or slow it down to use the touch screen to have more interactive play this Dr. Seuss book is fun for the young reader. You can always read it yourself and add your personal flair to the story!

    Fantastic App

    I got this for my 3 year old sister and she loves the interactive part of the book. (Me too!) The pictures are so much nicer than the screen shots can show and it really feels like the story comes alive for you, while still teaching her the written words.

    Disappointed

    Living books had a version of cat in the hat, back in the early 90s, that was far superior to this. Shame apps haven't evolved. Narration has much to be desired.

    What a wonderful book. My favorite as a kid; this is the best way to learn to read for my 6 year old. You can touch anywhere on the page and it tells you what you are touching. It reads to you if you want or you can read it yourself. The words are highlighted as it reads to you and it has great sound effects and the voices are great. My son's favorite now. You won't regret it.
