Bookroo's summary

In the whimsical town of Who-ville, a grumpy outcast known as the Grinch harbors a deep-seated hatred for Christmas. As the holiday approaches, he devises a plan to stop it from coming. Through his own irreverent and humorous perspective, discover the events that shaped his disdain and the unexpected journey that follows. Will the Grinch succeed in his scheme, or will the spirit of Christmas transform him? Dive into this heartwarming tale of mischief, redemption, and the true meaning of the holiday season.

From the publisher

Here is a digest-size novelization of the hip, live-action hit movie of the Dr. Seuss classic How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, starring the one and only Jim Carrey as the Grinch.The movie script goes beyond the events of the stolen Christmas, all the way back to the beginning in Who-ville – where the Grinch grew up – and explains how and why he came to hate Christmas so much that, finally, one year, he had to stop it from coming. Told in the first-person voice of the Grinch himself, this is rib-ticklingly funny, irreverent, and ultimately touching. This is the movie – and the movie tie-in – of the holiday season.
