We have a lot of fun reading Dr. Seuss books. Jakob's current favorite is Green Eggs and Ham, which he calls his Sam I Am book. He takes stacks of books to bed with him and "reads" them to himself. I am amazed when Green Eggs is one of those books, because he remembers those l-o-n-g rhymes perfectly!
I scored big when I found a Green Eggs and Ham 20 piece puzzle at a yard sale for 25 cents. But what really got Jakob excited was the day I made green eggs and pancakes (yes, pancakes, says this non pig eater) for breakfast. He could hardly sit still while I was cooking.
I thought it didn't look very appetizing. Not even with the blueberry syrup.
Jakob was of the opposite opinion. He happily dug right in.
He cleared his plate and asked for more. (Weeks later, he is still asking for more. I guess I will be whipping up a green breakfast again soon.)
Check back over the summer to see what other book based meals we've made.
