苏斯博士，在英语世界里，可是家喻户晓的人物。在美国乃至整个英语世界，每个孩子开始英文阅读时，几乎都是从他的作品开始。

他一生创作的48本西方家喻户晓的精彩教育绘本，本本都是经典之作，作品被翻译成20多种文字和盲文，全球销量突破2.5亿册。

他曾获得美国图画书最高荣誉凯迪克大奖、普利策特殊贡献奖，两次获得奥斯卡金像奖和艾美奖。

在全美任何一间不论多小的公立图书馆，只要有儿童区，就一定有一个专门的书架给他的，而那上面的书，通常只有一半在架上，另外一半常年处于流通外借之中。

《The Green Eggs and Ham》的创作源于Dr.Seuss和一位朋友打赌，能否用50个单词写成一个故事。于是便有了这本50个单词组成的脍炙人口的书，并成为苏斯博士韵文诗文的经典代表！

故事中这个老爷爷不喜欢尝试吃新东西，Sam-I-Am就像一个执着的“推销员”，他用尽了种种办法希望说服这个满腹狐疑的“老家伙”来尝一尝绿鸡蛋和火腿。为此他绞尽脑汁，想尽了各种手段，在雨里吃，在火车上吃，在树上吃等。最后老爷爷尝试了一下，觉得绿鸡蛋和火腿真好吃！

从孩子般天真烂漫的Sam-I-Am身上，孩子们会学到执著、创造和幽默。而那个耷拉着耳朵，带着高帽子，愁眉苦脸的老爷爷教你学会信任、尝试新事物的勇气！
