First published in 1960, Green Eggs and Ham is a classic children’s book by Theodor Seuss Geisel aka Dr. Seuss. The main character of the book, Sam-I-Am pursues his friend who is surprisingly nameless, and offers him “green eggs and ham” in numerous places with a variety of different dinner guests until he ultimately gives in and tries the “delicacy”.

If you’re not familiar with this story, it’s an endearing journey of a sad and grumpy fish who learns that even the poutiest of frowns can be turned into the brightest of smiles. That being glum is not his destiny and he can do something about turning his frown upside down with the help of a special friend.

Catchy rhymes and beautiful, bright illustrations, The Pout-Pout Fish available in hardcover and board book format, is sure to be a hit with your little ones.

Although the target age is pre-school and above, even at 11 weeks Freyja loves this book! Sometimes she “zones” out partway through, but she more often stays focused all the way to the end and then I go back to her favorite parts which are when he’s blubbing lol…
