Just as great.....

..... as reading the book.

I got this for my young niece to listen to and found I listened more than she did.

Just like Dr. Suess himself the book is great for kids to listen to on car rides.

An old favorite!

Loved it! I have shared this book with my son ( many years ago) and now with my granddaughter. It is timeless and a joy to hear her giggle over rhyming words...say what you will... they don't call them classics for no reason.

The Dr. Seuss classic comes to life.

Jason Alexander provides an entertaining interpretaion of the Dr. Seuss classic in this audio version of Green Eggs and Ham. I asssigned the printed version of the book to my first grade ESL students. After we read and worked with the book in class, I recommended they look for and listen to the audiobook. Both, parents and students, told me how much they loved listening to it. They also said it helped them improve their reading, listening, and speaking skills by reading along and imitating the narrator's pronunciation.

Great read. A little fast. But great

Jason Alexander is great at this. The timing for the book is a bit fast. I feel like I am turning pages before my son really absorbs what's happening on some of the pages with less words. Other than that, Jason is a great voice for this.

A Childhood Favorite comes to Life!

We love Jason Alexander’s rendering of this rollicking, winsome tale!
Our daughter may be 20 yrs old now, but her “special needs” permit her to see with the eyes of a child and she still Loves this book!
