From Children's Software Revue® -- "Subscribe Now!"
This electronic storybook was designed by the original Living Books team at Br¿derbund and was the second Dr. Seuss title made for CD-ROM. (The first was Dr. Seuss ABCs.) The program contains 18 beautifully illustrated pages with carefully designed animations derived from the classic Dr. Seuss book. Also hidden in the story are three activities that vary in quality. Our test families' favorite was the enjoyable word- and sentence-making activity. Testers weren't as enthusiastic, however, about the relatively dry three-level color-matching game and the word-rhyming activity. While the activities could have been much stronger, the quality of the text, graphics and animations are all high, making the CD a solid addition to an educational software library.
Teaches: reading, rhyming, initial consonants, matching colors

Amazon.com Review
"Thank you, thank you, Sam-I-Am! How we love Green Eggs and Ham!" Whether you prefer the straight read-aloud storybook or the silly games hidden throughout, your children will enjoy the software version of Dr. Seuss's classic Green Eggs and Ham as much as you enjoyed the book.

While Sam's story is best suited for toddlers and preschoolers, older siblings can still enjoy playing the included games for a time or two as well. Required mouse skills are basic, so even younger users should be able to play on their own. Clear, bright images are nearly identical to the original book illustrations, with the simple animations providing new excitement as the story builds to its "surprising" climax.

With Dr. Seuss's excellent combination of phonics and word repetition, your children will receive a great introduction to crucial early-reading skills. --Jill Lightner

wow, what fun
I can only say that our 4 and 2 year olds love hearing the story of green eggs and ham. being able to play along makes this so much fun for them! they love it! definately worth the money, in fact i have ordered more similar items so they can try them.

Great Tool For Catching Up On Your Reacing
I think I like this software more than our 4 year old likes it. I guess that's because it's allowing me to catch up on my reading and watch some of my favorite DVDs. Trust me, once you put this CD-Rom in the computer, your child will stay busy for hours. He or she will be quiet as a church mouse. I also like the fact that our 4 year old also found this CD-Rom very child-friendly. When I attempted to help her she quickly let me know that she did not need any help
