Once upon a time, there was a poor family. They had two children named Hansel and Gretel.

One night, Hansel and Gretel heard her stepmother told their father to leave the children in the jungle. Gretel was very sad.

The next day, their parents asked Hansel and Gretel to follow them into the jungle. Their stepmother asked them to wait until they came back.

Hansel and Gretel knew her plan. They tried to find their way back home.

Hansel and Gretel


Hansel and Gretel were brother and sister. Their poor parents were starving, so they went out in search of food. They took one slice of bread along, which they used to mark a path back to their home by leaving crumbs along the way. After a while, they came upon a little house made of gingerbread. Hansel broke off a piece to eat. Suddenly, the door flew open and an old woman came out and invited them in. She fed them mountains of pancakes and fruit, and then tucked them into bed to sleep. What Hansel and Gretel didnt realize was that the old woman was fattening them up so she could use them in her favorite dish roasted child! Now they were prisoners, and the old woman kept feeding them, and when she asked them to stick their fingers out of their cell so she could judge how fat they were getting, Hansel held out a bone instead. Finally, the children escaped and pushed the old woman into the oven. They filled their pockets with jewels and food and used the trail of bread crumbs to find their way back home, where they lived happily ever after.
