I don't know about you, but when I hear Christmas, I think cartoon specials! There are TONS of cartoon holiday specials out there. But few stand taller than Dr. Seuss' "How The Grinch Stole Christmas." Though that might be because there's freaking THREE versions of it.
And in today's episode of "A Brief History" we take a look at how Dr. Seuss' timeless book became a cartoon classic, a controversial live action film, and the newest project by the Minions people.
