Do you know the story about Grinch and his attempt to steal the Christmas?!
The Grinch is a hairy green creature who absolutely hates Christmas.
He lives in the caves north of a town of Christmas lovers called the "Whos".

The people of Who-ville did not care for presents or material trappings. Christmas was in their hearts. And without any remorse or sadness, the people of Who-ville celebrated Christmas. When he saw it the Grinch feelt a twinge of remorse and maybe even a bit of Christmas spirit, so he brought back all the things that he stole. He arrived in time to join in on the Christmas festivities. "And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow, |
