"Would you eat them in a box? Would you eat them with a fox?"
This timeless Dr. Seuss classic has been delighting readers since 1960. Sam-I-am never gives up trying to convince his friend that green eggs and ham are a tasty treat. He tries everything - in a house, with a mouse, in a box, with a fox, with a goat, on a boat - to no avail. Then finally, finally his friend caves in... and tries them. And guess what? "I do so like Green Eggs and Ham!" Kids will love Dr. Seuss's wacky rhymes and whimsical illustrations. And who knows, now they may even be willing to taste their broccoli.
New features only available in this omBook include professional narration, background audio and digital artwork for each scene. To promote reading in young children, individual words are highlighted as the story is read and words zoom up when pictures are touched. By combining the original text and artwork of Dr. Seuss with features that entertain and promote reading, this omBook appeals to readers of all ages.

Nice but flawed licensing It should be perfectly obvious that a tablet you give to a toddler should not be connected to the internet. But that is exactly what this app requires. Otherwise it is fine, but I just can't get over this very obvious problem. I mean the whole point of buying an app (vs using a free app supported one) is that you can use it offline?

Daughter loves OM books My 5 year old daughter loves the electronic book and I'm glad she does. It's a fun story by Dr. Seuss with colorful illustrations just like the paperbooks but with the bonus of funny sound effects, great narration, and auto play. I love the convenience of having the book ready for her anytime, anywhere, and, knock on wood, it hasn't failed yet. I also appreciate that the highlighted scrolling allows her to read along with the narrator; I notice her silently sounding out the words to herself. It's worth it.

It was great up until it has licensing issues. Now we cant even use it properly. Dunno how to fix it. Disappointed for a paid app.
