Dr. Seuss' How the grinch stole Christmas

Jim Carrey as the Grinch and Taylor Momsen as Cindy Lou Who

PPG style

Story-
Every Who Down in Whoville Liked Christmas a lot...
But the Grinch,Who lived just north of Whoville, Did NOT!

The Grinch hated Christmas! The whole Christmas season!
Now, please don't ask why. No one quite knows the reason.
It could be his head wasn't screwed on just right.
It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight.
But I think that the most likely reason of all,
May have been that his heart was two sizes too small.


A girl named Cindy Lou who was confused of what christmas is about,
after becoming aware of the Grinch's existence that he's not mean just misunderstood,
she started to create interest in the Grinch and his history and asked
everyone what they know about him,
and soon discovers that he has a tragic past. He actually comes from a mistake by a wrong wind when he was a baby,
and is adopted by a group of ladies. Although he shows some sadistic tendencies as a child, at Age 8 he was not the cruel and selfish person who he became;
he simply was ridiculed by all his classmates
for mostly by Augustus May Who,
because of his appearance
with the exception of Martha May Whovier,and goes on a rampage against Christmas. And never been seen again,
until 53 years Cindy saw him

Whatever the reason, His heart or his shoes,
He stood there on Christmas Eve, hating the Whos,
Staring down from his cave with a sour, Grinchy frown,
At the warm lighted windows below in their town.
For he knew every Who down in Whoville beneath,
Was busy now, hanging a mistletoe wreath.

"And they're having their 1000th Whobilation!" he snarled with a sneer, "Tomorrow is Christmas! It's practically here!" Then he growled, with his Grinch fingers nervously drumming,

Cindy was touched by this story,
decided to make the Grinch the main participant of the party before Christmas,to the great displeasure of Augustus, who had no choice but to agree to the idea.
But when she offers an invitation to the Grinch,
he only grumbles and send her out of his cave.
However, after much gossip and debate with himself,
he with a "little help" from Max his dog, goes to the party anyway.

While he is initially disgusted with the party,
he started to genuinely enjoyed himself until Augustus proposes to Martha in marriage and gives the Grinch an electric shaver as a Christmas present,
something that makes him remember his traumatic childhood and go on rampage again,
spoiling the party and upsetting Cindy Lou.
The Grinch is pleased with his rampage,
but much to his dismay,
he soon realized that his attack does not remove the spirit of Christmas from them,
and that they will do the commemoration of the Christmas tomorrow without any trouble. Angry with the idea of spending another annoying Christmas in his cave,

"I MUST find some way to stop Christmas from coming!" said Grinch
For Tomorrow, he knew, all the Who girls and boys,
Would wake bright and early. They'd rush for their toys!
And then! Oh, the noise! Oh, the Noise!
Noise! Noise! Noise!
That's one thing he hated! The NOISE!
NOISE! NOISE! NOISE!
Then the Whos, young and old, would sit down to a feast.
And they'd feast! And they'd feast! And they'd FEAST!
FEAST! FEAST! FEAST!
They would feast on Who-pudding, and rare Who-roast beast.
Which was something the Grinch couldn't stand in the least!
And THEN They'd do something He liked least of all!
Every Who down in Whoville, the tall and the small,
Would stand close together, with Christmas bells ringing.
They'd stand hand-in-hand. And the Whos would start singing!
They'd sing! And they'd sing! And they'd SING!
SING! SING! SING!
And the more the Grinch thought of this Who Christmas
The more the Grinch thought, "I must stop this whole thing!" "Why, for fifty-three years I've put up with it now!"
"I MUST stop this Christmas from coming! But HOW?"

Then he got an idea! An awful idea!
THE GRINCH GOT A WONDERFUL, AWFUL IDEA!
"I know just what to do!" The Grinch laughed in his throat.
And he made a quick Santy Claus hat and a coat.
And he chuckled, and clucked, "What a great Grinchy trick!"
"With this coat and this hat, I look just like Saint Nick!"
"All I need is a reindeer..." The Grinch looked around.
But, since reindeer are scarce, there was none to be found.
Did that stop the old Grinch? No! The Grinch simply said,
"If I can't find a reindeer, I'll make one instead!"
So he called his dog, Max. Then he took some red thread,
And he tied a big horn on the top of his head.
THEN He loaded some bags And some old empty sacks,
On a ramshackle sleigh And he hitched up old Max.
Then the Grinch said, "Giddap!" And the sleigh started down, Toward the homes where the Whos Lay asnooze in their town.

All their windows were dark. Quiet snow filled the air.
All the Whos were all dreaming sweet dreams without care.

When he came to the first little house on the square.
"This is stop number one," the old Grinchy Claus hissed,
And he climbed to the roof, empty bags in his fist.
Then he slid down the chimney. A rather tight pinch.
But, if Santa could do it, then so could the Grinch.
He got stuck only once, for a moment or two.
Then he stuck his head out of the fireplace flue.

Where the little Who stockings all hung in a row.
"These stockings," he grinned, "are the first things to go!"
Then he slithered and slunk, with a smile most unpleasant,
Around the whole room, and he took every present!
Pop guns! And bicycles! Roller skates! Drums!
Checkerboards! Tricycles! Popcorn! And plums!
And he stuffed them in bags. Then the Grinch, very nimbly,
Stuffed all the bags, one by one, up the chimney!

Then he slunk to the icebox. He took the Whos' feast!
He took the Who-pudding! He took the roast beast!
He cleaned out that icebox as quick as a flash.
Why, that Grinch even took their last can of Who-hash!
Then he stuffed all the food up the chimney with glee.
"And NOW!" grinned the Grinch, "I will stuff up the tree!"

And the Grinch grabbed the tree, and he started to shove,
When he heard a small sound like the coo of a dove.
He turned around fast, and he saw a small Who!
Little Cindy-Lou Who, The Grinch had been caught her again,
Who'd got out of bed for a cup of cold water.

She stared at the Grinch and said, "Santy Claus, why,”
"Why are you taking our Christmas tree? WHY?"
But, you know, that old Grinch was so smart and so slick,
He thought up a lie, and he thought it up quick!
"Why, my sweet little tot," the fake Santy Claus lied,
"There's a light on this tree that won't light on one side." "So I'm taking it home to my workshop, my dear."
"I'll fix it up there. Then I'll bring it back here."
“what's Christmas is about?” she asked again
“Presents I suppose” said the Grinch “I was afraid of that” she answered.

And his fib fooled the child. Then he patted her head,
And he got her a drink and he sent her to bed.
Then she said to grinch, who think is santa she said something
nice about the himself then went to bed,

And when Cindy Lou Who went to bed with her cup,
HE went to the chimney and stuffed the tree up!
Then the last thing he took Was the log for their fire!
Then he went up the chimney, himself, the old liar.

On their walls he left nothing but hooks and some wire.
And the one speck of food That he left in the house,
Was a crumb that was even too small for a mouse.
Then He did the same thing To the other Whos' houses
Leaving crumbs Much too small For the other Whos' mouses!

It was quarter past dawn... All the Whos, still a-bed,
All the Whos, still asnooze When he packed up his sled,
Packed it up with their presents! The ribbons! The wrappings!
The tags! And the tinsel! The trimmings! The trappings!

Three thousand feet up! Up the side of Mt. Crumpit,
He rode with his load to the tiptop to dump it!
"PoohPooh to the Whos!" he was grinchishly humming.
"They're finding out now that no Christmas is coming!"
"They're just waking up! I know just what they'll do!"
"Their mouths will hang open a minute or two,
Then the Whos down in Whoville will all cry BooHoo!”
When the Whos wake up and notices that they were robbed,
Augustus got mad and openly accuses
Cindy Lou as the person
responsible for "ruining Christmas!",
but her father,
Lou Lou Who openly defended her by arguing that she did nothing wrong and that the principal meaning of Christmas is to spend it with family and friends,
and not to give or receive gifts and put up decorations. The people agreed with this remark and began to sing

Meanwhile,the Grinch, unaware of what is happening in the town, believes that he destroyed Christmas and decides to destroy all the stolen gifts after he hears the Whos crying, but much to his shock and chagrin,
"That's a noise," said the Grinch, "That I simply MUST hear!"

So he paused. And the Grinch put his hand to his ear.
And he did hear a sound rising over the snow.
It started in low. Then it started to grow.
But the sound wasn't sad! Why, this sound sounded merry!
It couldn't be so! But it WAS merry! VERY!
He stared down at Whoville! The Grinch popped his eyes!
Then he shook! What he saw was a shocking surprise!
Every Who down in Whoville, the tall and the small,
Was singing! Without any presents at all!

He HADN'T stopped Christmas from coming! IT CAME!
Somehow or other, it came just the same!
And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,
Stood puzzling and puzzling: "How could it be so?"
"It came with out ribbons! It came without tags!"
"It came without packages, boxes or bags!"

And he puzzled and puzzled, till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn't before!
"Maybe Christmas," he thought, "doesn't come from a store."
"Maybe Christmas...perhaps...means a little bit more!"
And what happened then? Well...in Whoville they say,
That the Grinch's small heart Grew three sizes that day!
an insight that profoundly touched him.

But his happiness dodn't last,
gravity starts to pull the stolen gifts to the edge of the cliff,
and a horrified Grinch decides to save it,
but the gifts are too heavy for him,
and he is about to let them fall until Cindy who decided to give him another chance
appears on top of the gifts and tells him that she came to see him,
and that "nobody should be alone on Christmas".
This provides the Grinch with enough strength to lift the gifts.

And the minute his heart didn't feel quite so tight,
He whizzed with his load through the bright morning light,
After a long descent, the Grinch appears to whoville along with Cindy and the gifts,
explaining what has transpired,
apologized for all his evil deeds and pranks against the Whos,
and offers to accept any punishment they want to give him.
Much to Augustus's chagrin, the Whos not only decided to forgive him,
but Martha also denies Augustus's proposal and decided to stay with the Grinch
much to his personal happiness and delight.
In the end, the redeemed Grinch started a new life with the Whos And he brought back the toys! And the food for the feast! And he, HE HIMSELF! The Grinch carved the roast beast.

"nobody should be alone on Christmas"
Welcome Christmas,
Christmas Day!

The End
