About Green Eggs and Ham
Parents need to know that this classically silly story shows characters doing a few dangerous things -- like driving a car into the treetops and, later, on top of a moving train. But since the tone is overtly comical, most kids will know that they shouldn't try these things at home.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the benefits of trying new things -- from exotic foods to books with big words to challenging physical tasks. (Who knows? You just might like them.) Do you think the unnamed character who claims to dislike green eggs and ham likes them in their normal state (ie. not green)? Would you eat them? Have you ever had a strong opinion about something that you were convinced you hated and later discovered you liked? Did it take a lot of courage to try something new?
