The story follows a [[ScrewySquirrel nutty character]] named Sam-I-Am, who hangs around a tall cranky dog-face whose name is never given. Throughout the book, Sam pursues his neighbor around, asking him if he would like to eat the titular foodstuff. The grumpy character denies his offer each time until finally he gives in so that Sam will leave him alone... and given that this is the TropeNamer for IDoNotLikeGreenEggsAndHam, he likes it.

The book was written as the result of a friendly bet: Seuss's publisher was impressed that ''TheCatInTheHat'' was written using fewer than 300 different words, and bet Seuss that he couldn't write another one with a coherent plot [[UpToEleven using only 50 different words]]. Seuss hit it right on target.

DrSeuss does it again, putting a tiny collection of words to excellent if annoying use (especially if you have to read the same book to your kid eighty times in a row... or [[EarWorm just enough to get it stuck in your head]]).
He manages this with a text composed primarily of repetitions of the same few lines, with a few minor changes, building up to a climactic ending. His whimsical pictures showcase the crazy world in which this storyline is possible.
The story follows a [[ScrewySquirrel nutty character]] named Sam-I-Am, who hangs around a tall cranky dog-face whose name is never given. Throughout the book, Sam pursues his neighbor around, asking him if he would like to eat the titular foodstuff.
