He’ll dress up like Santa, sneak into Whoville and steal Christmas from the Whos. So he sneaks into Whoville, while they’re all sound asleep, dreaming of Christmas and presents and treats. He steals their presents, their toys, their stockings and wreaths! He steals their cookies, their turkey and even their trees! He puts it all in a bag and onto his sleigh. The Grinch left the Who’s with nothing for Christmas Day. He waits for the morning, to hear crying and shouts. To see sad Who faces; Christmas will be cancelled, no doubt. But the Grinch hears no crying, sees no sad faces, no tears. He hears laughter and music. Whoville is filled with cheers. The Whos are still happy without stockings and candy and cookies and wreaths. They’re happy without turkey and presents and even their trees! This makes the Grinch change. He feels sorry for taking their Christmas
