Sam-I-am

Dr. Seuss work Green Eggs and Ham is on the menu today. It is easy to read because it is simple, it only uses these 50 words:
a, am, and, anywhere, are, be, boat, box, car, could, dark, do, eat, eggs, fox, goat, good, green, ham, here, house, I, if, in, let, like, may, me, mouse, not, on, or, rain, Sam, say, see, so, thank, that, the, them, there, they, train, tree, try, will, with, would, you.

The theme of the story is that we should be open minded or we will miss opportunities.

And Dr. Seuss  and by a great storyteller. One of Dr. Seuss's fan is Philip Nel. We will look at his post as well.

But let us first of all visit YouTube.
