Review

How the Grinch Stole Christmas/Horton Hears a Who features musical selections from the television productions of Dr. Seuss' classic tales. Hans Conried and Boris Karloff narrate, while Thurl Ravenscroft (also known as Frosted Flakes' spokes-feline Tony the Tiger) sings the unforgettable "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch." "Welcome Christmas," "Trim Up the Tree," and "A Quarter of Dawn" are among Grinch's highlights, while Horton's track listing features "Mrs. Toucanella Told Me" and "Be Kind to Your Small Person Friends." How the Grinch Stole Christmas/Horton Hears a Who features holiday fun and abundant imagination for the rest of the year. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
