Book: How the green stole Christmas

"How is it, thought the Grinch, I, out, tried hard in vain?
Christmas came! Without any sausages and pates,
Without gifts, without ribbons, bows, boxes, bags!
I thought it in the shop, take, Christmas,
This strange, this mysterious celebration -
And it comes by itself, out of nowhere,
Like some kind of... like... well like... a miracle?"
