Grow your heart three sizes and get in on all of the Grinch-mas cheer with this Christmas classic--the ultimate Dr. Seuss holiday book that no collection is complete without!

Every Who down in Who-ville liked Christmas a lot . . . but the Grinch, who lived just north of Who-ville, did NOT!


Not since "'Twas the night before Christmas" has the beginning of a Christmas tale been so instantly recognizable. This heartwarming story about the effects of the Christmas spirit will grow even the coldest and smallest of hearts. Like mistletoe, candy canes, and caroling, the Grinch is a mainstay of the holidays, and his story is the perfect gift for readers young and old.

Classic! Best way to introduce the Grinch to small children.

My 4 year old niece didn't want to go to the live play of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" because she was scared of the Grinch. When I heard this I knew what the problem was. Children can't sit there for over an hour before the Grinch turns nice. So I will read her the book first. It will take just a few minutes for the Grinch's heart to grow three sizes (oops, spoiler alert!). Then she can watch the 30 minute animated special. Then she can see the play. I suppose she can watch the Jim Carrey movie as well.

Typo in book. Chimbley should be chimney

Would be 5 stars if the grinch stuffed the bags up the chimney!! What’s a Chimbley? How can a classic get messed up like this??

Quality issues

Book cover and pages aren't facing the correct way. Right side up cover, upside down pages. Disappointing quality!

A classic but keep away from little ones

It's a classic obviously but my 3 year old was scared of the picture on the front cover and I had to remove the book from his room before he could fall asleep. He was fine with the story itself - but I had not noticed that Grinch's red eyes glisten in the dark (metallic print) and frankly they looked pretty evil even to me. So just FYI there if you want to avoid scaring your little one.. Also I wish the illustrations were in full color.

Book wasn't the size I expected

While this was the book title I wanted, the size of the book isn't what I expected. The size of the book I ordered is UNDER the Green Eggs book, and as you can see, it is NOT the same size as the book on top, which I bought at the book store. I had no idea that there would be a different size in the book. I'd only seen these books the size of the Green Eggs book. While I can make this work, I am not happy about it. Too much trouble to return it now.

A classic book for the Holidays!

The book is bigger than I thought it would be and the cover is a red shiny metallic color. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my boss. He told us he was a grinch, and we also decorated our office as whoville. Because everything was Grinch themed, I figured his gift should be too. It was also a gift he could share with his children.

Its The Grinch, what more is there to say?

I've always loved "The Grinch" growing up, so I had to get this for my kiddos this Christmas. I haven't given it to them yet, and I won't be til the night before christmas as their "night before christmas box", but I flipped through the pages already. The book has that nice crisp new book feel where it's almost hard to turn the pages because of how tight the binding is, but I love that. It arrived clean and no scratches or anything on the cover which is always nice!

Great Hardcover Children's Book

Beautiful hardbound book. Would make a great collection to any children's library. I'm using it for reference for a church musical. I've forgotten how the movie had changed the story a lot, so will be sticking to the original as much as possible. Also, the illustrations are so colorful and inspiring for set designs & costumes.

Needs quality control checks :/

I wanted so much to give this a 5 because this is the book I have always come to love but clearly they need to do some quality control because not only was it printed upside down and backwards ( which I could probably play off that it was the grinch playing games ) but the bottom of the pages aren’t even cut they are all jagged and uneven and it causes this to look so tacky... unfortunately this is a gift with no time to return and replace

Printed incorrectly

So we bought this book for our kids at Christmas and it came maybe 2 weeks before the holiday which was great. However, the book is printed backwards and upside down from the outside cover. Very confusing to the kids then they fo to open the book.

Better than expected

I thought the cover was just red but the one I got is a shiny metallic red and honestly its a huge upgrade from what I thought I was getting

Great book!

I ordered this book to read give to my child on Christmas Eve. The actual size of the book is a little larger than other Dr. Seuss books I have but I like the larger size. It is actually the same size as "The Lorax" which I also bought on Amazon but larger than the other 10 or so Dr. Seuss books that my kids have. We really enjoyed reading this book together on Christmas Eve. This is fun story with a good message and great illustrations. My kids were engaged and enjoyed this book. It would also be good for young readers to read themselves. I would definitely recommend this book. It would also make a great gift for a child.

great condition

The book came in absolutely great condition as if I would have picked it up off the self in the store. Perfect to read to my son for years to come and take cute pics :)

This Version

A wonderful book by Dr. Seuss. This book is a smaller version. The color hue of the original book's red color in this version is shiny ruby red, unlike the classic red. Other differences I may have missed. Reprints are made in China, but still retain the classic color and size . These would be vintage and collectibles.

Great Holiday Classic

Great holiday classic. Its a beautiful hard back book. My only complaint has nothing to do with the seller and more to do with Amazon. When I tell you this normal sized book arrived by itself in a massive box! I know the factory workers are probably stressed and overworked this holiday season but I swear I thought someone accidentally delivered a TV to my house!

DAMAGED "NEW" BOOK!

There is food on the pages causing them to stick together. Some sticky substance on the covers, broken binding and the front and back covers are damaged. There is some black smudge marks all over the covers and the book is way bigger than the other dr suess books i have. VERY DISAPPOINTED!

Messy

Bought this as a goft for my daughter’s first Christmas and the book is COVERED in what looks like doughnut frosting! Are you kidding me?!!!How disgusting!

Damaged

The cover is all scratched up and looks terrible. I would return it, but these books are hard to find around Christmas. Not happy about giving it as a gift though.

A Fun Christmas Read For Children!

The book arrived in great shape which has not always been the case, because books are not as protected for mailing as they use to be. The cover is a bright red which is an immediate attraction to kids, and the animation is great! A classic read for years, even back to this grammy's childhood.

An all time favorite

I wanted a copy of this book for my Grammie Library Bag for my grandchildren. It's a tradition that doesn't quit. I love to read to children, and when my two youngest grandchildren are old enough to sit still to be read to, I am sure this will be a favorite to them, too.

Favorite Book

Growing up this was my favorite Christmas story to read as a kid (and watch the cartoon of course). This year this was purchased as a gift for my three year old granddaughter, and given a bit early before Christmas. She loved flipping through the pages.

Beautiful Shiny Red Cover!

This just came in the mail today and I was so impressed with it! It's got a beautiful, shiny red cover and it looks perfect in every way. I can't wait to start a new Christmas tradition this year of reading this book together as a family. Definitely recommend! Happy customer!

You've Got To Love This Classic!

Who doesn't love this story? It is so great! A perfect Christmas story! Fun for all ages! I'm 48 (as of this review, in 2021) and I still love reading it every year for Christmas. And I don't have any kids! So that should tell you something!

Wonderful Price and Quality

I love How the Grinch Stole Christmas! It's one of my favorite Christmas classics. This is a wonderful and meaning gift for the child or child at heart. The price is excellent and I couldn't of been happier. The book arrived on time and was in excellent condition. I love Dr. Suess and your little one or yourself is sure to love it too.

Scrooge for Kids

Maybe that's oversimplifying a bit, but the basics are the same. In this story, we have the Grinch, who hates Christmas and every year must put up with the celebration of the Whos who live in the valley below his cave. But this year things will be different. This year, he intends to do something about it. Surely the Whos will be disappointed when they wake up Christmas morning to discover that all their presents and decorations have been stolen. Or will they? Told is classic Seuss fashion, completely in rhymes, this book appeals to kids year round. I know I insisted that it be read to me more then just in December. The fanciful illustrations, also classic Seuss, are just as engaging as this story. After all, what could be worse to kids then no Christmas? Yet there is a message here that there is more to Christmas then the commercialism we see around us. It's subtle and not expanded on greatly, but it's there none-the-less. Surely Charles Dickens' classic tale was an influence when Dr. Seuss sat down to write this book. Both the main characters hate Christmas and miss the point, but have a revelation that shows them how important Christmas really is. Of course, the meat of the stories is completely different, so kids not ready for Dickens will love this one. If there is such a thing as a classic picture book, this belongs in that category. Enjoyable at Christmas, or the whole year round.

Classic book, nice size and color

Better than I expected in terms of quality of the book. Everyone knows the story, but what impressed me was how nice, big and bright the cover and drawings were inside. We read it all year long with my 4 year old.

Classic Xmas Book

I purchased this book for my 2 year old daughter for Christmas. It is a classic and it had to be in her home library. Love that this book is hardback and had all the memories from childhood. Recommend as a classic!

What a joy to read and to share!

When I was a child, I found the Dr. Seuss books a bit scary because I didn't much like abstract or surreal stuff. Fast forward many years and I have a daughter who is just learning to read so after seeing that she enjoyed a Dr. Seuss book in the doctor's office I thought I would order this book and give it a spin. This particular edition comes in a nice metallic finish green and red cover. It feels like a quality book. After reading it to her the first night, I had to read it two more nights after that in succession. It was great fun for me too because the rhyming prose allows the reader (who may not be a great thespian) to do some role playing and added intonation. The illustrations are both unusual and vivid which helps stimulate the young reader's imagination. Finally, the essential story message which is to have a heart is a good one particularly in times such as these. Highly recommended!

A Christmas classic for the children!

Great little story about the spirit of Christmas. If you collect Dr. Seuss books please note that this book is larger in size (taller and wider) than the other books. Perfect size to sit with all the grandchildren and read—they can all see the pictures!

Great Christmas present

Loved this present- bought for nieces and nephews.

I haven't given it to them yet, and I won't be til the night before christmas as their "night before christmas box", but I flipped through the pages already. The book has that nice crisp new book feel where it's almost hard to turn the pages because of how tight the binding is, but I love that. It arrived clean and no scratches or anything on the cover which is always nice!

Great Hardcover Children's Book

Beautiful hardbound book. Would make a great collection to any children's library. I'm using it for reference for a church musical. I've forgotten how the movie had changed the story a lot, so will be sticking to the original as much as possible. Also, the illustrations are so colorful and inspiring for set designs & costumes.

Needs quality control checks :/

I wanted so much to give this a 5 because this is the book I have always come to love but clearly they need to do some quality control because not only was it printed upside down and backwards ( which I could probably play off that it was the grinch playing games ) but the bottom of the pages aren’t even cut they are all jagged and uneven and it causes this to look so tacky... unfortunately this is a gift with no time to return and replace

Printed incorrectly

So we bought this book for our kids at Christmas and it came maybe 2 weeks before the holiday which was great. However, the book is printed backwards and upside down from the outside cover. Very confusing to the kids then they fo to open the book.

Format is bad

I could only view the book (on my Android with Kindle app) by turning the phone sideways. With the way the book is formatted, it will only display in landscape. Also, you can't zoom in to make the letters bigger, so it was difficult to read them. I'm very disappointed since i love the story itself.

Classic book in a nice format

My son (6) was very into the Grinch this past Christmas, so we bought this for him to read in December. He loved it! The hardcover copy makes it durable and great for gift-giving. I'm sure we'll have it for years to come; a classic story that doesn't go out of style.

A classic Christmas Book.

This is a classic Christmas book by Dr. Seuss, which will give great fun to all readers. Arrived quickly and in excellent condition from a great seller. Would buy from them again, Thank you!

A timeless classic

What can I say except that this is probably one of the most recognized Dr Seuss stories there is. I remember reading it when I was little and now I get to pass it on to my grandkids.

Good book but disappointed

Great book! BUT.... I ordered it for a friends baby shower and the book was put together wrong the back cover is actually the front of the book and upside down. It is still readable but was put together backwards/upside down so I laughed but it’s disappointing.

Great Classic

Love this classic book. It's a great addition to my son's book collection. He loves the colors & the rhymes.

Beautiful Edition!

This is a beautiful hard copy edition of the beloved Grinch story. The cover is a shiny festive red and green, perfect for gift giving. It is full size, typical of Dr. Seuss books. I bought this for my 3 year old Grandson, and can't wait to read it with him Christmas Eve!

One of the best Christmas stories Ever!

bought this for a little boy for Christmas and also gave him a stuffed Grinch. it was a hit!Turned out to be his favorite gift. He continues to read it every day. Delivery was prompt and arrived in perfect condition.'

Great quality fast shipping Class Christmas book

Bigger and shinier than I expected. Perfect for our Christmas collection.

Great book

Beautiful, large hard back book. It's a lot longer than I remember it being as a child. My two year old really doesn't have the patience for it yet, it may have to wait till next Christmas before she's willing to sit and listen to it.

Classic! Best way to introduce the Grinch to small children.

My 4 year old niece didn't want to go to the live play of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" because she was scared of the Grinch. When I heard this I knew what the problem was. Children can't sit there for over an hour before the Grinch turns nice. So I will read her the book first. It will take just a few minutes for the Grinch's heart to grow three sizes (oops, spoiler alert!). Then she can watch the 30 minute animated special. Then she can see the play. I suppose she can watch the Jim Carrey movie as well.

Typo in book. Chimbley should be chimney

Would be 5 stars if the grinch stuffed the bags up the chimney!! What’s a Chimbley? How can a classic get messed up like this??

Quality issues

Book cover and pages aren't facing the correct way. Right side up cover, upside down pages. Disappointing quality!

A classic but keep away from little ones

It's a classic obviously but my 3 year old was scared of the picture on the front cover and I had to remove the book from his room before he could fall asleep. He was fine with the story itself - but I had not noticed that Grinch's red eyes glisten in the dark (metallic print) and frankly they looked pretty evil even to me. So just FYI there if you want to avoid scaring your little one.. Also I wish the illustrations were in full color.

Book wasn't the size I expected

While this was the book title I wanted, the size of the book isn't what I expected. The size of the book I ordered is UNDER the Green Eggs book, and as you can see, it is NOT the same size as the book on top, which I bought at the book store. I had no idea that there would be a different size in the book. I'd only seen these books the size of the Green Eggs book. While I can make this work, I am not happy about it. Too much trouble to return it now.

A classic book for the Holidays!

The book is bigger than I thought it would be and the cover is a red shiny metallic color. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my boss. He told us he was a grinch, and we also decorated our office as whoville. Because everything was Grinch themed, I figured his gift should be too. It was also a gift he could share with his children.

A Grinch fan, Large book

My son is a Grinch fan and this book is large and vibrant cover. I’ll be purchasing more as I’m loving how large the book is as I wasn’t expecting that.

Although very short the book get's right to the point of the story with wonderful added illustrations to aid in understanding al

What can be said that others haven't already stated about the grouchy Green of Mean. This is one of the most beloved books by Dr. Suess. Although very short the book get's right to the point of the story with wonderful added illustrations to aid in understanding all that Who terminology. A sweet tale how one angry individual finds the meaning of the holiday on a Christmas Eve he will never forget.

A Treasure Not to Be Missed

Classic is overused to the point of abuse these days but this is simply a great book that every child and adult should spend time with. The rhymes are wonderful, the pictures engaging and the story conveys the essential message of Christmas as simply and wonderful as any written. Along with A Christmas Carol, this book deserves a treasured place in the holiday season.

Wonderful Classic...A must for all with children or anyone who is a kid at heart

I loved this story growing up. Dr. Seuss is STILL my favorite author and I enjoy reading the books to my 3 year old son. This classic story tells of a grouchy "Grinch" who hates Christmas and what he perceives it to be all about. In the end, he has a change of heart. The rhymes are catchy, the art is beautifully done and the message it sends to readers young and old will be remembered! I ordered this with 2 day shipping and it arrived the very next afternoon, too so kudos to the seller!

Classic Christmas Story

Classic. I can’t criticize this book. Yes, the latest movie is better, but that’s not the point. It’s an original Christmas classic every child should read.

ORIGINAL GRINCH STORY

The book is a hit with an older toddler who is starting to "get it." The Grinch story is fun, and never seems to wear out year after year.

A Christmas classic ♥️💚♥️

Got this for my niece who is absolutely obsessed with the Grinch. She is too young now to read it, but she loves the pictures. Really nice book!!

Classic Grinch in Beautiful Red Hardcover

Great book. Classic Grinch story book in bright and glossy hard cover. We will be reading this for many years. Unbeatable price on Amazon.

The real How the Grinch Stole Christmas

I just love this book and have read it so much to all the kids that I can almost repeat the entire book from memory. What a great book to have.

You're a mean one......

Mr. Grinch.....You really are a heel.......You're as cuddly as a cactus.......You're as charming as a eel........Mr. Grinch............

Classic Christmas story for Seuss fans; fun winter bedtime story material

A classic. My kids (3 and 5) love this book. We read it so much over the winter that we all practically have it memorized. It's a fun Seuss book with more of a story than some on his other books that are probably for younger audiences (One Fish Two Fish) or early readers (Hop on Pop). Some nights you want to read the kids a story at bedtime that has more meat to it - the Lorax and the Cat in the Hat and this book fit that bill.

You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch

Both the book and the video (the classic animated one, not the Jim Carrey version) have been Christmas traditions for as long as I can remember. The Grinch sits up on his mountain, getting more and more worked up at the way the Whos down in Who-ville garishly celebrate Christmas. He decides to teach them a lesson by taking everything away from them. In case you've been living under a rock your entire life and haven't read this book, I won't spoil the ending. Dr. Seuss, in his trademark sing-songy fashion, will restore your faith in humanity.

Good quality

I read this every night in the month of December. I can tell you that the quality is top notch and my kids quote it constantly now.

Perfect Christmas Gift

I am so excited to share this classic story with my daughter. I love the Dr. Suess & this was perfect for her Christmas Eve book.

B U Y IT♥️

Absolutely beautiful book, it’s a lot bigger in person and the cover is very shiny and attention grabbing for little ones eyes♥️

classy book

Love the book and the fact it's way cheaper online than it was in Target. Nothing wrong with our print, thank goodness and it was easy enough for my 7 year old to read to her younger siblings. Cute prop for pictures as well.

Perfect

Amazing story, bought it for a Christmas tradition. The illustrations look old fashioned and I love that. Definitely recommend.

Great Book

I bought this book to go with 23 other books we bought from amazon to make our Boys an advent for Christmas, I'm super happy with the quality of this book for the future years to come in our new family tradition of reading one Christmas book a day until Christmas eve every year.

A classic Christmas story! I love this movie, and this book made the story come to life. A must have in your Christmas book collection!

An Old Classic in Great Condition

I bought 2- one as a gift for a child and one for my own bookcase. Also is a great addition to indoor Christmas decor.

Great christmas book!

My 2 year old daughter is obsessed with all things Grinch, so I wanted to get her the book where his story began. Great story about the true meaning of Christmas. My daughters only complaint is that the Grinch is not green! So funny.

How Grinch Stole Christmas Got 5 Stars!

This is a fine work of literature from D.R. Seuss and is a favorite to read to youngsters around x-mas time. The book is actually quite a bit different from the movie and thus worth the read even if you've seen the film.

Very shiny

Bought as a early Christmas gift for 6 yr old granddaughter. She was very excited! Yes this book is very shiny.

A Timeless Story

Lovely, humorous, timeless story! A true classic, which still brings joy and a smile. The book is securely bound, colorful, and arrived in perfect condition.

Cute Book

This was shiny and everything I wanted in a copy of How the Grinch Stole Christmas. It was a large hard cover that we will cherish for years to come!

Classic Christmas book

The classic story bought for my son for Christmas. Perfect condition and so happy to have it as part of his library.

I Love this book

I Love this book, and was delighted to find it still available. There's nothing like "source document" reading to get the gist of Grinching. Thanks for making this book so readily available!

Classic

This is such a classic Seuss story and I was overjoyed to buy it to read to my son during his first not a tiny baby Christmas. He loved it and I love the message.

Christmas fun

I bought this for my niece and nephew, and believe they will love reading it

Perfect!

My youngest son loves the grinch movies and he was overjoyed to receive this book. It’s fun to read and the script is similar to the original animated movie.

It made reading time better

I think I read this book every other night from Thanksgiving to Christmas this year for my toddler. She loves it.

Um...

What do I need to say? It's a classic. Quintessential, man. I'm seriously. Just buy this book already. Stop reading this. Go.

Maybe next year...

I agree that Boris Karloff owns this narration and it's a little weird and disappointing to hear anyone else, even Walter Mattheau reciting it. My 3-year-old sat completely engaged when I played it, but later when I asked him if he wanted to hear it again, he said it was scary even though he loves the movie and book.

Great holiday classic

This is my sons favorite holiday book and story this particulate book had a metallic front that he thought looked really neat great holiday classic

Cute story

This story is so cute! This book is a tradition in our house around Christmas! Got it for my daughter around Christmas time and she loved it!

Perfect gift for any child

How can you go wrong with such a classic. Nice cover and pages. A perfect book for Christmas!

A classic

One of my favorite books of all time! Needed a copy of it for my own home because my niece now has our original. While the movies adaptations are good, there is no replacing this classic book.

Great book

Ordered for both my daughter and my niece. The cover is metallic and very pretty, used it as a photo prop for one of her Christmas card pictures.

How the Grinch Learned the True Mwaning of Christmas.

I used to read this to my preschool class and I loved this Dr. Seuss book as much as they did. A wonderful Christmas present for any child. The story of how the Grinch learned to grow his heart in Whoville in rhyme.

Poor quality

The book is made poorly! Glue spots, crooked binding, wavy pages!

Still good

I love this story, I bought this book for my daughter at Christmas, she loves it. I also really love the red used at the front of the book! Gorgeous. I love that they didn’t change the story either.

Great addition!

Obviously needed this book in our home now that we have a little one. The book came in good condition and is a great addition to our Christmas book collection.

Beautiful but Dented

I love this story and the cover is actually pretty than I expected. It has a metallic shine to it which I couldn't see online. However, it arrived with a large dent across the top of the book. The front and back covers are both torn from the dent. It arrived with another book which was undamaged in a flat shipping box that looks fine. It's readable and I'm keeping it as I don't have time to replace it before Christmas. Disappointed though to gift my favorite Christmas story damaged.

A lifelong companion for the holidays

I've read this so many times for so many years that the first half of the book can be recited by memory. We used to stand in line in the grade school library for our five minute turn to visit this little world dreamed up by our favorite doctor. It is a joy to have on my Kindle and still makes the perfect December bed time story.

Large/tall book, good for toddlers and up

It was 6 dollars cheaper than my local Barnes and Noble. Now our almost 3 year old only wants to watch the original Grinch cartoon and can recite the book page by page! Its large and thin paper so not good for younger kids/babies to handle. Shiny red cover is eye catching and fascinating to the wee ones. I do wish it was available in a board book though.

How can you go wrong with dr. Seuss all time classic my grandchild loves his dr. Seuss books...........

Perfect Christmas Gift for 2020

Now is a great time to buy this book as a Christmas gift - for obvious reasons! Buy it before it is banned!

It's a Classic

I love this book. I won't add too much, but do note that this book is the very large size of the Dr. Seuss book. I don't mind too much but it doesn't fit upright in my cube storage. I have to store at an angle compared to my other Dr. Seuss books.

Classic! Best way to introduce the Grinch to small children.

My 4 year old niece didn't want to go to the live play of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" because she was scared of the Grinch. When I heard this I knew what the problem was. Children can't sit there for over an hour before the Grinch turns nice. So I will read her the book first. It will take just a few minutes for the Grinch's heart to grow three sizes (oops, spoiler alert!). Then she can watch the 30 minute animated special. Then she can see the play. I suppose she can watch the Jim Carrey movie as well.

Typo in book. Chimbley should be chimney

Would be 5 stars if the grinch stuffed the bags up the chimney!! What’s a Chimbley? How can a classic get messed up like this??

Quality issues

Book cover and pages aren't facing the correct way. Right side up cover, upside down pages. Disappointing quality!

A classic but keep away from little ones

It's a classic obviously but my 3 year old was scared of the picture on the front cover and I had to remove the book from his room before he could fall asleep. He was fine with the story itself - but I had not noticed that Grinch's red eyes glisten in the dark (metallic print) and frankly they looked pretty evil even to me. So just FYI there if you want to avoid scaring your little one.. Also I wish the illustrations were in full color.

Book wasn't the size I expected

While this was the book title I wanted, the size of the book isn't what I expected. The size of the book I ordered is UNDER the Green Eggs book, and as you can see, it is NOT the same size as the book on top, which I bought at the book store. I had no idea that there would be a different size in the book. I'd only seen these books the size of the Green Eggs book. While I can make this work, I am not happy about it. Too much trouble to return it now.

A classic book for the Holidays!

The book is bigger than I thought it would be and the cover is a red shiny metallic color. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my boss. He told us he was a grinch, and we also decorated our office as whoville. Because everything was Grinch themed, I figured his gift should be too. It was also a gift he could share with his children.

Its The Grinch, what more is there to say?

I've always loved "The Grinch" growing up, so I had to get this for my kiddos this Christmas. I haven't given it to them yet, and I won't be til the night before christmas as their "night before christmas box", but I flipped through the pages already. The book has that nice crisp new book feel where it's almost hard to turn the pages because of how tight the binding is, but I love that. It arrived clean and no scratches or anything on the cover which is always nice!

Great Hardcover Children's Book

Beautiful hardbound book. Would make a great collection to any children's library. I'm using it for reference for a church musical. I've forgotten how the movie had changed the story a lot, so will be sticking to the original as much as possible. Also, the illustrations are so colorful and inspiring for set designs & costumes.

Needs quality control checks :/

I wanted so much to give this a 5 because this is the book I have always come to love but clearly they need to do some quality control because not only was it printed upside down and backwards ( which I could probably play off that it was the grinch playing games ) but the bottom of the pages aren’t even cut they are all jagged and uneven and it causes this to look so tacky... unfortunately this is a gift with no time to return and replace

Printed incorrectly

So we bought this book for our kids at Christmas and it came maybe 2 weeks before the holiday which was great. However, the book is printed backwards and upside down from the outside cover. Very confusing to the kids then they fo to open the book.

Totally Grinchy!

It was bought as a gift, this last Christmas. The Grinch by illumination was watched regularly. I wanted to see how close it was to this book written so long ago. Pretty amazing how it was a thirty minute show to an a hour and a half. (Or more). It was just like the book.

Our Favorite Christmas Book!

Who doesn't love this classic book? I love the size and hardback cover of this book. We read it every Christmas Eve, as well as many other days leading up to Christmas. We typically read the book, make green cookies, and then watch the movie on a snowy weekend day to get us in the spirit. A must-have book for any collection, especially around the holidays and if you are Dr. Seuss fan!

One of the 25 days of Christmas list we picked

One of the 25 book I bought for the kids to open every day till Christmas. They loved it.

Passing down books from 2 generation to next

Its a bit bigger then the smaller size as u can see,i got this for my granddaughter,she has the complete set of dr seuss,but this one and how the grinch stol christmas wasnt in it.she loves it cause this is like passing the dr seuss books from me ( im her grandmie and her father).may she keep this going on to the next generation

Couldn't imagine christmas time without it

You don't need my review to buy the book, just get it already, we all know he's the best and this one's a classic.

LOVE IT

a classic. i read it to my kid’s every christmas. it has a nice fancy gloss on the cover i really like.

Awesome book!

Beautiful book and slipcase. I highly recommend this to any grinch collector! I’m so happy to have this in my collection!

or the one who grabs this really nice edition of the book

I don't know who gets more from this timeless story of learning to care and to share, the wide eyed children, the just as intent collection of "somewhat" older listeners, or the one who grabs this really nice edition of the book, to be the one to read it aloud as both the Grinch and the Narrator.

Dirty copy

The book came with somebody’s dirty fingerprints on it. We’re in a pandemic, this is disappointing to say the least. The rest of the book seems fine.

Original

Its not the same words as the Boris Karloff movie but its genuine Dr Seuss.

"Maybe Christmas," he thought, "doesn't come from a store"

You can never go wrong with How the Grinch Stole Christmas! There is a wonderful reason why this story has become a classic that is pretty much a household story! Love it! Merry Grinchmas to all, and to all a good night!

Quick to replace with perfect quality item, 2 day turnaround!

Edit: already recieved a replacement 2 days later, in perfect condition! Thank you! Quality materials, but poor quality control. The pages are glued together at the bottom, attached to the inside book cover. I am going to request a replacement and will update when I get it.

Kids loved the book

One of my favorites of all time and for me to read to kids was the best

Nice

Instant favorite for my 3 year old who loves Dr. Seuss. Nice large hardback book to add to her collection.

Childhood Flashback

Exactly like I remember it as a kid!! Book was here very quickly and we got to read our book as a new family tradition we started on Christmas Eve!

Classic

It's the Grinch that Store Christmas. Stop reading reviews and just buy it. This belong in any kids book collection

Exceeded expectations

Delivered on time and in excellent condition. Completely satisfied

Perfect for a Grinch-loving Child

Our daughter love, love, loves the Grinch so this was a great purchase!

Hard Cover - Foiled - NEW!!

I was pleasantly surprised and the quality for such a cheap price! Hard cover, the NEW gold foiled design and perfect condition!

Definitely a must for Christmas. A book the whole family loves.

Quality book, larger than expected

Classic book is great! Nice quality, and a little larger than your standard Seuss books

classic book

I think the book was a little pricy but it is a classic. My grandson loves this story.

This is a book and it’s the one you’re looking for... buy it!

Every primer in amazon loves this book a lot... Except for this review, I do not! It’s the Grinch that stole Christmas! If you’ve never heard of it, you wouldn’t be searching for it. It has a hard front cover, pages with words as well as pictures, and a hard back. If you want this book buy it. I don’t understand why I was asked to do a review?!

Beautiful Story. Horrible illustrations.

This is great Christmas story, but I am not fond of the illustrations. Because of the way this book is illustrated, I don’t recommend it for small children.

Love the grinch but the book they sent me is damaged

Of course the book is amazing but the one they sent me is damaged and I’m returning. It’s a Christmas gift for my nephew and like 5 pages are all mangled

Great book, came in great shape!

I Love the bigger size! Great book, came in great shape!

Fun & colorful book.

After seeing the Grinch in the theater , my grandchildren love reading this book to teach other.

Better than Jim Carrey

He did it. He stole Christmas. But then he gave it back. Christmas isn’t about presents but about singing

Great Christmas gift

We bought this for our daughter's "something to read" gift this Christmas. Lately she's been fond of watching this movie and loves books so it seemed like a win-win. Can't wait to see her reaction!

Read it to your children every year

This one needs no review - it is a classic and nothing bad can be said about it

December. Book

Book was in great condition. My daughter loves the grinch. We read it almost every night during december.

Perfect book for young kids at Christmas

Got this for my three just before Christmas, and we read it on Christmas Eve, which I think will be our new tradition. Perfect condition!

Classic

What you would expect. We love the story it’s a classic

GREAT!

EXCELLENT KIDS BOOK! WILL BE USING IN MY CLASSROOM DURING A CHRISTMAS LITERATURE STUDY!

Great book

Perfect new condition, as described, would recommend.

Perfect Child’s Present

My nephew is obsessed with The Grinch. This beautiful hardback book was his favorite Christmas present last year.

Classic Seuss

A must-have for the Seuss lover's collection and the Christmas lover's collection.

Classic story, cannot go wrong with this book.

Gift for my nephew, an addition to his library. Classic story, he loves the pictures, of course having his Daddy read it to him in fun voices makes it special. Quality book.

Love it!

My daughter really likes this book, it is very thrilling and interesting and warming book. So classic!

Five Stars

Great book to share with children to remind them that "maybe Christmas doesn't come from a store."

Perfect

Exactly what I wanted. My family loves the grinch and this book is super cute, all the pages were printed nicely no complaints

Super cute and good for all ages!

Got this book for nightly Christmas book unwrapping and reading. All of my kids ages 2-10 enjoyed it!!

Expected new, received a misbound second

Expected a new copy, but this is clearly a printer's second. The pages are bound below the cover and will begin to bend the moment it is put on the shelf. Needed it as a gift, so especially disappointing

A classic

I was telling my Russian husband about the good memories I have of reading this story to my now grown son. So I bought it and read it out loud like I did long ago. It was still delightful! A timeless classic.

Great story

Just as great as I remember as a kid

Classic!

Good quality book. Quick shipping. Right price.

Dr Seuss still Rocks

This is such a great book for the holidays. I love reading this to my son, this is his second favorite next to "The night before Christmas." I priced this out several places and found amazon to be the most reasonably priced reputable source. For those of you who aren't farmiliar with Dr. Seuss his books are all great fun, and the artwork will remind you of books from your own childhood.

Love this book.

Got this book for my little man for Christmas. Can’t wait to read it together

Well I was very impressed when I first opened the box because I was not expecting the book to be that big or be the metallic red. I then opened the book and the print is completely upside down. I had to flip it upside down to the back of the book for it to be the beginning.

How the Grinch stole christmas hardcover book

I loved this book as a child. I bought this for my daughter. She enjoyed the story and pictures. I recommend this to anyone to buy.

Wonderful book, very nice hardback copy of it

Wonderful book, very nice hardback copy of it. I bought it as a gift for a little boy I watch, so he could have his own copy as he loved it when I brought mine. Seuss is delightful to read out loud, trust me when I say you will enjoy reading to a child far more with a good book in your hands, and few are better than his.

A True Classic

The animated feature and the Jim Carey movie are wonderful in their own right, but they hardly hold a candle to this original rhyming offering from Dr Suess. It's been a few years since I had little ones who would sit still to have it read to them. Nevertheless, I read it myself and I am glad to have it on the Fire HD now. The message is timeless and particularly needed in this day and age.

Quality book

This book is nicely put together and feels and looks like a collectible. I almost don’t want my 3 year old handling it because i don’t want him to bend it or rip the pages lol

Still a good book

This is a high quality copy of this classic story.

A classic

Great book! Big grinch fans in my house.

5 stars

He is still stealing Christmas and we can't get enough.

Wonderful book

This is wonderful! My baby loves hearing it. Highly recommend!

Classic Christmas book...my kids love the grinch.

We read a Christmas book a day in the month of December and we added this to our book basket this year. It's a classic...can't believe we didn't have it yet (we've read it..just didn't own it). Typical Dr. Seuss book with odd words and phrases...but it has a great message at the end.

Classic! Best way to introduce the Grinch to small children.

My 4 year old niece didn't want to go to the live play of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" because she was scared of the Grinch. When I heard this I knew what the problem was. Children can't sit there for over an hour before the Grinch turns nice. So I will read her the book first. It will take just a few minutes for the Grinch's heart to grow three sizes (oops, spoiler alert!). Then she can watch the 30 minute animated special. Then she can see the play. I suppose she can watch the Jim Carrey movie as well.

Typo in book. Chimbley should be chimney

Would be 5 stars if the grinch stuffed the bags up the chimney!! What’s a Chimbley? How can a classic get messed up like this??

Quality issues

Book cover and pages aren't facing the correct way. Right side up cover, upside down pages. Disappointing quality!

A classic but keep away from little ones

It's a classic obviously but my 3 year old was scared of the picture on the front cover and I had to remove the book from his room before he could fall asleep. He was fine with the story itself - but I had not noticed that Grinch's red eyes glisten in the dark (metallic print) and frankly they looked pretty evil even to me. So just FYI there if you want to avoid scaring your little one.. Also I wish the illustrations were in full color.

Book wasn't the size I expected

While this was the book title I wanted, the size of the book isn't what I expected. The size of the book I ordered is UNDER the Green Eggs book, and as you can see, it is NOT the same size as the book on top, which I bought at the book store. I had no idea that there would be a different size in the book. I'd only seen these books the size of the Green Eggs book. While I can make this work, I am not happy about it. Too much trouble to return it now.

A classic book for the Holidays!

The book is bigger than I thought it would be and the cover is a red shiny metallic color. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my boss. He told us he was a grinch, and we also decorated our office as whoville. Because everything was Grinch themed, I figured his gift should be too. It was also a gift he could share with his children.

Its The Grinch, what more is there to say?

I've always loved "The Grinch" growing up, so I had to get this for my kiddos this Christmas. I haven't given it to them yet, and I won't be til the night before christmas as their "night before christmas box", but I flipped through the pages already. The book has that nice crisp new book feel where it's almost hard to turn the pages because of how tight the binding is, but I love that. It arrived clean and no scratches or anything on the cover which is always nice!

Great Hardcover Children's Book

Beautiful hardbound book. Would make a great collection to any children's library. I'm using it for reference for a church musical. I've forgotten how the movie had changed the story a lot, so will be sticking to the original as much as possible. Also, the illustrations are so colorful and inspiring for set designs & costumes.

Needs quality control checks :/

I wanted so much to give this a 5 because this is the book I have always come to love but clearly they need to do some quality control because not only was it printed upside down and backwards ( which I could probably play off that it was the grinch playing games ) but the bottom of the pages aren’t even cut they are all jagged and uneven and it causes this to look so tacky... unfortunately this is a gift with no time to return and replace

Printed incorrectly

So we bought this book for our kids at Christmas and it came maybe 2 weeks before the holiday which was great. However, the book is printed backwards and upside down from the outside cover. Very confusing to the kids then they fo to open the book.

Classic!

My son loved getting this for Christmas

Read about the grinch!

My granddaughter will love this! What child does not like the grinch story and nicely illustrated!

Good quality

Very nice book using for a picture with my grandson

book.

it came today and it came fine,

Classic story, quality isn't very good though

It's a classic story but the book itself is flimsy, not what I was expecting.

Great product thank you :)

Great product thank you :)

Perfect

Came in perfect shape. Love this book!

Christmas

Love this book great price

but It would have been better if it was the 8X11" version listed in the ...

I'm not sure I received the right book. I received the classic Seuss How the Grinch Stole Christmas, but it's a mini-version, no more than maybe 5" tall with itty bitty little text. It worked, but It would have been better if it was the 8X11" version listed in the product description.

Good quality!

Got this old favorite for the kids visiting at Christmas and was very happy with the quality.

Christmas classic

Christmas classic. My toddler adores it and I’m sure we will be reading at Christmas for decades.

A classic for all ages.

I bought this for my small children after watching the original cartoon and the 2018 animated film. They loved the story and the illustration. A must have for any library.

LOOKED AND WORKED GREAT

LOOKED AND WORKED GREAT

Every child must read this book

It warms your heart if you believe in Christmas. One of the best books you can get for your kids. I've been reading this book to my little ones (both toddlers) at least 100 times, they always love the story.

Great for the event and the shipping was on time!

It came just in time and was the exact book we needed. You cannot go wrong with a classic.

Binded Incorrectly

The cover of the book was blinded upside down. Now it looks like I'm reading the book upside down.

Love it

Beautiful illustrations and the qualities of the book cover! Definitely a must have!

Love

It’s a classic you can’t go wrong.

Kid loves the book

Another Xmas classic

Grinchmas

There are more Dr. Suese shows after the Grinch. The cat in the hat meets the Grinch...

Wonderful tradition

I’ve read this book since I was in elementary school and now get to pass it on to my kids

A must for every home

A classic must for every child and I can't believe I waited so long to get it. Honestly thought I already owned it with the rest of our Dr Seuss books! It has a beautiful message and the natural flow of the rhymes are perfectly timed just as you can expect with every Dr Seuss book. Like I mentioned before...it's a must for every home library!!

Great

Childhood must have

A Christmas Classic

A classic from the wonderful world of Dr. Seuss. The pictures are beautifully illustrated with touches of color.

Beautiful cover

A classic. The book is very shiny like a holiday ornament. Dr Seuss classic.

This old familiar favorite seemed to be a hit with my grandson who is only 2.

I was not sure my two year old grandson was ready for this book but I was wrong. He loved it! I read it over to him several times and he listened the whole way through.

My son’s new favorite

My 4 year old is obsessed with the Grinch so this was perfect for him

Classic and still loved by kids

Classic book I’m glad I can now read to my kids. The cover seems updated with a more shiny red finish like a Christmas ornament; nice improvement, otherwise the inside is just as I remember it.

Love it

Such a pretty book in a shiny red! Can’t wait to give it to my three year old. Brings back so many childhood Christmas memories!

Such fun!

I had a vague knowledge of this book from the TV show, but the book has a charm all its own.

Book was Damaged

The book's content is great, but the product itself came highly damaged, with the tops of the pages ripped and ragged, and pages stuck together.

Good value, and fast delivery

I paired the book with a stuffy for one of my grandsons and he loves it.

Grinch learns Christmas Spirit!

Old grumpy guy tries to steal Christmas, but learns that Christmas is the spirit within that can’t be bought or stolen. Heart grows to big to keep inside! What’s not to love? ❤️

Great price

Classic book that was priced much cheaper on Amazon than in stores.

Love it!

Bought this for Christmas for my children- we have read it every day since then at least once. They had most of the book memorized within just a couple readings- but just love the story so much they want to hear it over and over and over again. They are 4 and 5 and I will find them "reading" it to themselves in the middle of the day just because they love it so much! Really great price for it too- therefore making it a perfect gift!

Fast shipping

Great book!

<3 the book, but not the kindle vers.

I love the book, but the kindle version I cannot read. This version as an EBook, is simply a copy (xerox) of the book, the type could not be changed, enlarged/ zoomed, etc, so for me i could barely see it let alone read it. I thought it would be a great book to have on my kindle to read to my grand-nieces, and nephews, esp when visiting them, but i can see, in this case, i better stick with the book.

Great story

Love the grinch

Great gift
