I found this compilation of Dr. Seuss books Recently at Village Discount Outlet (where, obviously, I can find ANYTHING). It includes six of his most popular titles--including, of course, How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

It's somewhat shocking, after having been exposed to the Chuck Jones animated special (with Boris Karloff as the voice of the Grinch), the live-action abomination with Jim Carrey, and the more recent animated feature with Benedict Cumberbatch providing the Grinch's vocals, how relatively brief Dr. Seuss's original book is--you can read it in about 10 minutes.

But oh, what a ten minutes those are.
