 Clever Translation December 4, 2008
This is a very well done adaptation of Green Eggs and Ham into Spanish. The translator takes some license with key phrases (e.g. "Sam I am" becomes "Juan Ramon"), but by doing so manages to preserve the integrity of the original's rhymes and rhythm. This is the best adaptation of a Dr. Seuss work into Spanish that I have encountered.
My Spanish reading level is low, so it took me a few tries to master the story, but once I did my 13 month old loved it. It scans just as charmingly as the original. It's too soon to judge its influence on my daughter, but this translation has definitely improved my Spanish vocabulary and pronunciation. I highly recommend it.

I never liked Green Eggs and Ham in English (or Fox in Socks either) because I found Sam so annoying. Give it up already, Sam, I don't like the blasted things! However, to my surprise I found myself really enjoying the translation into Spanish and I don't mind reading it over and over again to my kids. As a translator and conference interpreter myself, I'm delighted with the way the translators solved the rhythm transference. As a mom to bilingual children, I hope there are many more translations of English classics of the caliber of this one.
 It's a little too long and annoying. November 29, 2007

My 2 year-old loves Dr Seuss books and we decided to get this one in Spanish as we are raising him bilingual. It's very good for a translation as these books are extremely hard to translate.
