Green Eggs and Ham

Although I am notorious for my terrible memory, I remember mornings spent with my Uncle Jay vividly. Swaying in a rocking chair, sitting on his lap, he would read Dr. Seuss’s Green Eggs and Ham to me and occasionally slip me a sip of his black coffee, against my mother’s volition but very on-track with mine. “Dolly”, he’d say, and I’d always know what was coming next; “want to read The Lorax?” As both of my parents are only children, I am the only person I know who has no biological aunts or uncles

“The more you read the more things you know. The more that you learn the more places you’ll go.” Ever since I was born reading has always been in my life. One of the first books I’ve read as a child was green eggs and ham by Dr.Seuss. Dr.Seuss was one of my favorite authors to read.As a kid I would get very excited to read his books before going to bed at night. Growing up I never really liked reading. I always found it boring or

Moon Cake Festival: A Mid-Autumn Festival (Chung Chiu), the third major festival of the Chinese calendar, is celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month. This festival corresponds to harvest festival s observed by Western cultures (in Hong Kong, it is held in conjunction with the annual Lantern Festival). Contrary to what most people believe, this festival probably has less to do with harvest festivities than with the philosophically minded chinese of old. The union of man's spirit with nature

Throughout my short and unremarkable life, I have read many novels, seen many movies, and heard many stories. I have noticed every character resolved their conflict, whether in a happy or not-so-happy way. Sam-I-Am convinces the narrator to try green eggs and ham. Mulan saves China from the Huns. Perseus slays the gorgon Medusa. Harry Potter defeats Voldemort. Romeo and Juliet commit suicide together. In the past, I had always analyzed stories individually and never compared them to one another. I looked

Daisy Buchanan, in which shows the deeper meaning in the novel by showing that people during this time were judged solely on their appearance and what they owned. Nick observes, “On buffet tables, garnished with glistening hors d’œuvre, spiced baked hams crowded against salads of harlequin designs and pastry pigs and turkeys bewitched to a dark gold. In the main hall a bar with a real brass rail was set up, and stocked with gins and liquors and with cordials so long forgotten…”(40). Gatsby was known

so lucky when he first started writing. Dr. Seuss first book was And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street was published in 1937. The book was turn down 27 times by publishing companies. Before he knew it he came up with Cat in the Hat, Green Eggs and Ham and How the Grinch Stole Christmas, making history for years to come. The core value that these two pieces of writing share is respect. Many people who have accomplished amazing things in their lifetime may take their success too far. For the

said before i started it but never turned it in. Don't get me started with the reading. O god i wanted to kill myself when it came to reading. I hate reading with so much passion. The only booked i honestly read that i finished on my own was green eggs and ham by dr.

The preparation and meal for this holiday was to no extent small, but filled with lots of good food. An example is the main meal on Christmas consisted of roasted goose (which was the absolute main course if you were able to buy one), boars head, ham, or turkey (Victorian Food). The goose was served with sage and onion dressing which was a very traditional meal. The side dishes consisted of standing rib of beet with Yorkshire pudding, oysters, potatoes, pies, cranberry, and plum pudding. The big
