BOOK REVIEW #13 (Hansel and Gretel)

I read this book. Hensel and Gretel had difficulty making a living with their father and stepmother. Their stepmother was very bad. One day, stepmother and father took Hansel and Gretel deep into the forest, and left them there. The father sighed and made fire. He couldn't bear to look at his children. By morning, they didn't have a plan. So they walked all day long. At noon, they finally staggered into a clearing. There was a house which made from sweets. They were very hungry. Hansel was trying to bite off the toffee apple doorknocker, when the door flew open. Then the old woman hobbled out, and smiled. She said that "I love visitors! You must come inside." The kind woman served meal to them, and they stayed at there. Then Gretel woke up, but Hansel wasn't there. Gretel was confused. She went outside and heard her brother yelling from the shed. And he said "That woman's a witch!" So Gretel tricked her and helped him. They could escape. They took some jewels and a basket of snacks, then set off into the trees. Taking pity on Hansel and Gretel, the birds showed them the way home. This picture is very cute. I want to see such house! I thought that the stepmother is a very terrible person. But this story is very interesting.
