Green Eggs and Ham : ウィキペディア英語版 | Green Eggs and Ham
''Green Eggs and Ham'' is a best-selling and critically acclaimed children's book by Dr. Seuss, first published on August 12, 1960. As of 2001, according to ''Publishers Weekly'', it was the fourth best-selling English-language children's book of all time. The story has appeared in several adaptations starting with 1973's ''Dr. Seuss on the Loose'' starring Paul Winchell as the voice of both Sam-I-Am and the first-person narrating man.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dr. Seuss on the Loose )〕 ==Plot Summary== A character known as "Sam-I-Am" pesters an unnamed character, who also serves as the story's narrator, to try a dish of green eggs and ham. The unnamed character refuses, responding, "I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam-I-Am." He continues to repeat this as Sam follows him, encouraging him to eat them in eight locations (House, box, car, tree, train, dark, rain, boat), all to which the unnamed character still refuses, responding, "I do not like them here (Current location) or there (Previous location). I do not like them anywhere." and with three animals (Mouse, fox, goat). Finally, the unnamed character gives in to Sam's pestering and samples the green eggs and ham, which he does like after all in the end and happily responds, "I do so like green eggs and ham. Thank you. Thank you, Sam-I-Am." The Living Books version was the same but unlike the book, Sam I-Am sings his opening lines and says "Sam I-Am" twice. Also unlike the book, when Sam asks the unnamed character, "Do you like Green Eggs and Ham?", the eggs fly into his face, and there is an epilogue (not featured in the book) in which Sam and the unnamed character say goodbye to the readers. Then the unnamed character asks, "Say, why don't we go get something to eat?" and Sam replies, "I know just the place!". As the Living Books version ends, they walk into the sunset and the unnamed character says, "You know, Sam... This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship." and the book ends.
