The Grinch tries to stop Christmas from arriving by stealing all the presents and food from the village, but much to his surprise it comes anyway.

Reviews of the Latin translation:

“Anyone who claims Latin is dead should take a look at this book. The translation of Quomodo Invidiosulus nomine Grinchus Christi natalem Abrogaverit reminds us of just how alive Latin can be”. ~ Kenneth Kitchell, University of Massachusetts at Amherst

“Certainly the child in every Latinist will be delighted to read this old favorite of Dr. Seuss.” ~ Ginny Lindzey, Texas Classical Association

“Jennifer and Terence Tunberg have succeeded in rendering a modern myth in lively, impeccable Latin, accompanied by the charming illustrations of the original Dr. Seuss story.” ~ John Traupman, author of Conversational Latin

Condition: a fine copy.

Published by Bolchazy-Carducci Publishers, 1998
