All the Whos down in Whoville liked Christmas a lot
But the Grinch, who lived just north of Whoville, did not.
The Grinch hated Christmas...the whole Christmas season.
Oh, please don't ask why; no one quite knows the reason.
It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight
Or maybe his head wasn't screwed on just right.
But I think that the best reason of all
May have been that his heart was two sizes too small.

Children 12 years old and younger
