“HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS!: THE ULTIMATE EDITION” Giveaway

MERRY GRINCHMAS!

How The Grinch Stole Christmas

WARNER BROS. HOME ENTERTAINMENT’S ENDURING HOLIDAY FAVORITE, HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS!: THE ULTIMATE EDITION IS AVAILABLE ON BLU-RAY™ AND DVD 

This joyous, heart-tickling holiday event based on Dr. Seuss’ beloved book and featuring the voice of Boris Karloff has delighted viewers of all ages since its 1966 debut. The fun begins when the grumpy, grouchy, Yule-hating Grinch plots to ruin the Who’s Christmas. Can he steal their holiday spirit by stealing their holiday treats? Or does Christmas…perhaps…mean a little bit more?

This is one of my favorite Christmas movies! Now, this Ultimate Edition has more Grinchy fun for everyone!

    • How the Grinch Stole Christmas – Magnificently narrated by Boris Karloff and directed by animation genius and cartoon legend Chuck Jones, How the Grinch Stole Christmas tells the story of the miserable Grinch, who wants to sabotage Christmas for all the Whos in Who-ville. The Grinch thinks that by stealing the Whos Christmas trees and presents, he’ll succeed in stealing their joy. However, when Christmas morning arrives, the Grinch is taken by surprise when he notices the Whos greet the day joyously singing Christmas carols regardless of the fact that their village has been completely stripped of holiday gifts, decorations and treats. The cheerful attitude of the Whos prompts the Grinch to ponder the true meaning of Christmas and he slowly comes to realize the spirit of the season is not generated by material possessions. Will the Grinch have a change of heart and consider returning the Whos’ Christmas gifts?

 

    • The Grinch Grinches the Cat in the Hat – The Grinch is up to his old tricks again in The Grinch Grinches the Cat in the Hat, the Emmy Award-winning special directed by legendary animator Friz Freleng. In this special, the Cat in the Hat encounters the Grinch while picnicking one day. He refers to the Grinch as Mr. Greenface, which the Grinch takes an as insult, prompting him to retaliate by building a series of outrageous devices designed to cause all sorts of disruption. First, he creates a “Vacusound Sweeper,” which distorts any and all of the sounds within a 50-mile radius of the Cat in the Hat. Then he creates the “Dark House,” which is the direct opposite of a light house and puts the Cat in the Hat into complete darkness. He then uses the “Flummox Deluxe” to further warp the Cat in the Hat’s surroundings, which sends him and everything around him into complete chaos. Will the Cat in the Hat figure out a way to stop the Grinch and outsmart all his crazy devices?

 

    • Halloween is Grinch Night – When the Sour-Sweet wind starts to blow in Who-ville, all the Whos take cover because this signifies the beginning of Grinch Night, an evening in which the Grinch descends upon Who-ville to terrorize all its citizens. As the Grinch sets out on his journey to Who-ville, he encounters a courageous young Who named Euchariah, who attempts to stall the Grinch from reaching Who-ville. The Grinch however puts Euchariah into a trance in which he encounters all sorts of strange creatures who try to intimidate him. Will Euchariah manage to snap out of the trance in time to stop Grinch from reaching Who-ville?

“How The Grinch Stole Christmas” By Dr. Seuss Review and Giveaway!!!

How The Grinch Stole Christmas! is a classic book and I am sure most of us remember from our own childhoods.  My husband loves reading this to our kids and so do I, it never gets old.  That green Mr. Grinch is a mean one and those Whos down in Whoville are just minding their own business and celebrating the joyous Christmas season.  Little Cindy Lou Who even comes face to face with The Grinch who gets her a drink while he empties her house of the festive decorations and leaves not even a crumb big enough for a mouse.

His poor dog named Max who is forced to play the part of a reindeer and has us all feeling sorry for his terrible plight.  However, in true Dr. Seuss fashion, we know this story has a lesson and one that the Grinch learns that day.  Even though he took their gifts and the wrappings, the feast, the trees, and every bit of tinsel, he could not stop the joy that unites the Whos down in Whoville who start singing.  The Grinch is in awe, and wonders how can it be!  He took it all from them and yet they still sing.  A miraculous thing then happened to that nasty, old Grinch, it is said that his small heart grew 3 sizes that day!  See the Grinch realized something the we ought to much more, he realized that Christmas does not come from a store but perhaps just perhaps it means a little bit more!

Random House is sponsoring a giveaway on Mommy Ramblings.  One lucky blog reader will win their own hardcover copy of How The Grinch Stole Christmas!  Thank you Random house for the review copy and for sponsoring this great giveaway on Mommy Ramblings!!!  Open to US residents.
