Green eggs and ham

as a child i loved Dr. seuss, and his strange world and funny little charectors. i loved em all form the the elephant that can hear the voices of tinny little people (herman hears a who) to the one about the guy has loads or random animals in his house (theres a wocket in my pocket) but best of all is Green Eggs And Ham.

 for those few who do not know this is the story of a small person (and i use that turm lightly) offering another taller one the chance to eat green eggs and ham in a veriety of different places, including “here or there” “in a box” and “in the dark”. the taller charector turns down the offer time and time again saying that he dose not like green eggs and ham. the story concluds in an ironc twist of fate it turnes out that he does in fact like green eggs and ham and he would like to eat green eggs and ham in the different places.

as you might have notesed that i have quoted no names. for the last coupple of weeks me, my girlfriend and my friends have argued over the smaller of the two charectors name. we can not agree weather his name is just Sam on its own, and he then gos on to say “i am sam” but in a silly Dr. Seuss kinda way. Or weather it is Sam I-Am and the “I-Am” being his second name. i and a friend were on the his name is sam on its own, and hes just saying “i am sam” in a strange Dr. Seuss kinda way. my girlfriend and the rest of my friends were on the his name is Sam I-Am and I-Am is his second name.

after a argument at luch my friends went off to the school libery to fined Dr. Seusses Green Eggs and Ham. are school is a secondory and therefor did not have a the book (which i wasnt suppriesd at) so the argument continued. so to day i finaly got round to digging out my old Green Eggs And Ham book. and to be honest it dosent clear up a thing.

in the first two doubble pages it shows the small person ridding a dog like creatur holding a sign that reads “i am sam” and thus he must be called sam. on the third doubble page the charector is riding a new bear/ dog creatur and holding a sign that reads “sam i am” in red letters. also through out the book it is the taller of the two charectors who says “i do not like green eggs and ham i do not like them sam -am”.

so there it is i was wrong the small charector in Dr. Seusses Green Eggs And Ham is called Sam I-Am. oh well. i still do like Dr. Seuss and his strange world.
