It's been a while since I've posted an Oddaptation here at GottaBook. If you've never seen one, I think of them as picture book Cliff's Notes, though with attitude and almost always in verse (hence my thinking of one for Poetry Friday).
You can see a selection of Oddaptations here if you'd like to get up to speed.
My Grinch Oddaptation is a little bit different than others, but since it is the season....
HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS
by Dr. Seuss
Oddaptation by Gregory K.
Don’t worry. He didn’t.

Hey! This reminds me of the famous shortest poem, "Fleas."

We just watched THE GRINCH... and I'd forgotten about that poor dog! Thank goodness for happy endings.
I always appreciate a good giggle over here, Greg. Take care! A.
Hehe:>)
And, Amy, you forgot about Max? That's Christmas heresy right there!
Thanks, Greg. I'm running out the door and thought, I have time for one more poem. Hope it's a short one.
And it was.
Oh, I love this idea! Will have to check out some of the others.
Ha, ha! I love it. I'll have to check out the others!
Hee hee!
I love Max. He and Cindy Lou Who with her tiny cup are my favorite bits.
This delights me. I find the Grinch's tailoring skills impressive, and I always love the bit when Max's rump rises due to the "antler" tied on with string.
