SteelyKid is on a big Dr. Seuss kick at the moment, so, some observations:

  • The Cat in the Hat is way better than The Cat in the Hat Comes Back.
  • "We saw ALL the things fall" now makes me think of Hyperbole and a Half, per the icon, in a joke that will probably be forgotten by the time SteelyKid is old enough to understand it.
  • Green Eggs and Ham is not a good model for personal relationships.
  • It is, to my surprise, possible to do the nod-off-snap-awake whiplash thing while actually reading aloud.

    Good night (moon, room, cow jumping over the moon, light and the red balloon), everybody.

Also, I am probably incapable of thinking objectively about this book, because even now I am smiling at remembering 3-year-old Pip "reading" (he'd memorized it from us reading it to him) the book to himself at night, and hearing "Say, I LIKE green eggs and ham!" come from the bedroom in the most adorable toddler voice.
