Every Who down in Who-ville loves Christmas a lot, but the grouchy Grinch on Mt. Crumpit most definitely does not. Will he succeed in stealing Christmas, as he takes every present from pop guns to plums? Or will he find that even without the trimmings and trappings, Christmas still comes?
Dr. Seuss, also known as Theodor Seuss Geisel, is one of the most beloved children’s book authors of all time. From
