How the Grinch stole Christmas! Hardcover; tight and secure - 1957

1957 Dr Seuss TRUE 1st How the Grinch Stole Christmas! Children Illustrated

'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 lives just north of Whoville") 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 originally published by Random House in 1957.

This 1957 first edition meets all of the expected first edition points. See below for details.
