About this ebook

The timeless classic from the iconic Dr. Seuss – now available in ebook, with hilarious read-along narration performed by outstanding comic talent, Rik Mayall. Enjoy this classic Christmas favourite anytime, anywhere!

“The Grinch hated Christmas! The whole Christmas season!
Now, please don’t ask why. No one quite knows the reason...”

With a heart two sizes too small, the Grinch is the meanest creature you’ll ever meet. He hates Christmas and the whole festive season. But when he hatches a dastardly plot to steal Christmas, he’s in for a big surprise!

This classic seasonal story has become a favourite for good reason. Through hilarious rhymes and beautiful illustrations, Dr. Seuss teaches readers the true meaning of Christmas.

With his unique combination of hilarious stories, zany pictures and riotous rhymes, Dr. Seuss has been delighting young children and helping them learn to read for over fifty years. Creator of the wonderfully anarchic Cat in the Hat, and ranked among the UK’s top ten favourite children’s authors, Dr. Seuss is a global best-seller, with over half a billion books sold worldwide.

"How the Grinch Stole Christmas" is a classic Christmas story that everyone should read! It's got a great message about the true meaning of Christmas and it's always fun to see the Grinch try (and fail) to ruin the holiday. The illustrations are super cute and the story is easy to follow. I love reading it every year.

About the author

Theodor Seuss Geisel – better known to his millions of fans as Dr. Seuss – was born the son of a park superintendent in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1904. After studying at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire, and later at Oxford University in England, he became a magazine humorist and cartoonist, and an advertising man. He soon turned his many talents to writing children’s books, which included the creation of the one and only ‘The Cat in the Hat’, published in 1957, which went on to become the first of a successful range of early learning books known as Beginner Books.
