To some degree, Ted identified with the Grinch When asked why he wrote the book, Dr. Seuss replied, 'I was brushing my teeth on the morning of the 26th of last December when I noted a very Grinch-ish countenance in the mirror. It was Seuss! So I wrote the story about my sour friend, the Grinch, to see if I could rediscover something about Christmas that obviously I'd lost.' It was no coincidence that, when the book appeared in 1957, the Grinch complained, 'For fifty-three years I've put up with it now' Ted, of course, was born in 1904 After The Cat in the Hat and The Grinch, Ted's reputation grew exponentially" (Cohen, 329-30). The book has been adapted into several stage and film productions including the classic animated special produced in 1966 featuring narration by Boris Karloff as well as the 2000 live-action film directed by Ron Howard and starring Jim Carrey as the Grinch.

1963 TRUE 1st ed How the Grinch Stole Christmas! Dr Seuss Children Illustrated True first edition of the Classic Christmas tale! 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas!' is one of the most iconic and well-recognized children's books of the 20th-century. Written and illustrated by Dr. Seuss, this book tells the story of the Grinch who tries to stop Christmas from arriving by stealing all the presents and food from the village, but much to his surprise it comes anyway. Could Christmas be more than presents? 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' follows the concept of many Seuss books – perpetual rhyme schemes with nonsense words used to teach reading skills. It was published as a book by Random House in 1957 and, at approximately the same time, in an issue of Redbook. The book criticizes the commercialization of Christmas.
