This book is also named as the Teachers line of longitude 100 Books for children, by an online poll. This book also contains illustrations by Dr. Seuss, which add to the interest of the children.On the Top of the Mount Crumpit, which was in the north side of the Whoville, in that respect lived a swan like thing known as the Grinch. The Grinch was green in tinct and used to live in a cave. His only friend was a tiny dog Max. From the heighten, the Grinch could see that the people of Whov ille, known as Whos, celebrating Christmas reddentide and festivities. He could also hear their voices of excitement and singing. He watched those exchanging Christmas gifts and their Carol-singing. People of Whoville love Christmas and they always wanted to enjoy this season with merriment. The Grinch was very much envious of their ecstasy. He could no more endure them celebrating their favorite season. His heart was too sizes too small. So he decided to ruin their happiness (Dr. Seuss, 2000).So the Grinch, with his poorly dressed dog Max, went down the steep. Grinch had had his enough of Christmas business He was determined to destroy each and everything related to Christmas once and for all. So he sneaked into the houses of the Whos and stole their Christmas presents. He also stole their meals, decorations. He then started for his mount to take this loot up. He was determined to throw all these Christmas garbage. further at the very last moment, he heard a sound of Whos. Thi s sound was coming from Whoville. All the Who were singing for the Christmas. Despite the fact that there was nothing in their houses to enjoy, they were singing together. Suddenly the Grinch felt remorse. He came linchpin with all their stuff and joined the Christmas song.The Grinchs AttitudeIf we look into the character of the Grinch, we freighter see that he is obviously the Antagonist. Grinch was a miserable person, miserably against the happiness of others. He perfectly represents the Bad Guy of the story and typically solitary(a). He was not only physically alone, but more importantly he was a social outcast. He had no interaction with the people and lives in complete social isolation. He neer felt any attraction or affection to the people of Whoville. He just lived above the mountain.observation them, singing merrily and exchanging gifts with each other, always made him jealous. So he plotted against their happiness. He wanted to deprive them of the things which film t hem happy. He did not want to see anybody happy, as long as he is discontent with his life. He thought when the people of Whoville would not arrest anything to celebrate Christmas with they go out all became sad and unhappy like him. This was the only thing that could make him happy. Dr. Seuss made his point very clear that lonely people hates lining cheering crowdsChange in the Grinchs AttitudeAfter Stealing all the things the Grinch thought that he had made the people of Whoville unhappy. But then he heard them singing like the way they always do. Only subsequently then, a Shocking realization struck him. He realized that his platform totally failed. He had not managed to stop the celebrations of Christmas. Without any present and decorations, the people of Whoville were still celebrating the Christmas Eve with merriment.The Grinch realized that Christmas has nothing to do with the gifts and decoration. It even comes to those who have nothing in their houses. He can never st eal Christmas, because Christmas is not a tangible thing. Christmas is something quite different. He can never hold Christmas from coming. He has always misunderstood the merriment of the people of Whoville. He was in the state of utter shock.Though Grinch was a cruel and a lonely person but he still had a heart, which was innocent. He loved people inside and wanted to enjoy their gathering. But he never managed to join them by himself. He tried to steal their happiness, but he realizes that happiness was not round material thing. It can also be achieved, even if you have nothing. The situation introduced him to this new reality. It was shocking, but true. Christmas is not about presents and decorations, its all about inside merriment. The Grinch, with nothing in his possession, can even enjoy Christmas with the people of the Whoville.Dr. Seuss wants to tell us that Christmas is not about material things and commercialization. It is not about decorations and spending. Christmas i s all about loving each other and spending time with your loved one. By this story he showed us all that, even the Grinch took all the things of Whos, but they still celebrated Christmas. Love, peace of mind and harmony are the true message of the Christmas. Gifts and trees have nothing to do with the Christmas.
