how the grinch stole christmas story book

The Grinch, a grouchy, cantankerous creature who lived on a small mountaintop, despised Christmas. Every year, he would watch the residents of Whoville sing, dance, and celebrate the holiday with joy and cheer. His heart, which was two sizes too small, could not bear to see their happiness. So, one night, the Grinch decided to steal Christmas. He dressed up as Santa Claus and went to Whoville, taking every gift and decoration he could find. But when he returned to his mountaintop, he found a small child waiting for him.
