Description/Notes
A rhyming book about a queer creature, the Grinch, who plans to do away with Christmas. The happy residents of Who-ville have always gotten under the Grinch's skin, but at Christmas he finds their cheer inexcusable. He does his best to thwart the holiday-and the ending is one children relish no matter how many times they've read this book. Many adults can't read this out loud without attempting to imitate Boris Karloff's notable inflections. Ah, well. The Grinch, whose heart is two sizes too small, hates Who-ville's holiday celebrations, and plans to steal all the presents to prevent Christmas from coming. To his amazement, Christmas comes anyway, and the Grinch discovers the true meaning of the holiday. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of its original 1957 publication, 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas!' is available in this special foil-covered limited party edition. Full color.
