I wouldn’t be surprised if Edith ALSO liked ‘How the Grinch stole Christmas’ as a child. Unlike Krupp, she’d actually like the ending (and didn’t tear the last 7 pages out) because not only did it suggest that the holiday is best when people are spending time together, but because it turned out the Grinch was actually a bit of a softie under all that nastiness and grumpiness.
You know, like a certain someone.
She’s probably the only one who’d get away with calling Krupp ‘The Grinch’ or any form of the word because it’s actually used as a term of endearment around the holidays for him, instead of as an insult by others. For possible similar reasons, she’d be the only one who’d get away with singing the song near him, while others (namely George and Harold) would normally get yelled at or get glared at.
