The story is 1626 words in length and uses a vocabulary of only 236 distinct words, of which 54 occur once and 33 twice. Only a single word - another - has three syllables, while 14 have two and the remaining 221 are monosyllabic. The longest words are something and playthings.

Dr. Suess was responding to a challenge when he wrote his books. His publisher supplied him with a list of 400 words, ones that the publisher thought children would be learning in school. His publisher told him to cut the list in half and to try and write an interesting enough book for children. Nine months later Dr. Seuss finished The Cat In The Hat, which used 223 words from the list plus 13 words that did not appear on the list.

The Grinch Who Stole Christmas was a smash hit on television as a full color special and is a much beloved Christmas Story, as favored with kids as Dickens Christmas Carol.

We are proud to help continue putting the name of Dr. Suess and his books in front of children and hope that by supplying these free coloring pages parents will again discover the fun and importance for their children of reading and the Dr Suess series of books.
