A
A
Once
upon
a
time
there
lived
a
woodcutter
and
his
wife,
their
early
days
were
lived
in
bliss
in
a
small
wood
cottage
with
their
two
children,
hansel
and
gretel.
These
two
children
grew
up
to
be
wise.
Beyond
their
years.
Hansel
was
smart,
soft
and
charming,
where
gretel
was
poetic,
cautious,
but
quick-witted.
A
The
two
children
loved
to
skip
stones
in
the
lake
half
a
mile
over
hansel
and
gretel
spent
most
of
their
time,
finding
the
perfect
flattest
skipping
stones.
Their
collection
of
stones
was
large,
as
they
spent
more
time
collecting
than
actually
skipping
the
rocks
over
time.
They
had
quiet
a
strange
companion,
a
bird
who
would
steal
their
stones
and
hide
them
in
various
places.
A
All
over
the
land,
though
hansel
and
gretel,
knew
not
why,
at
the
peak
of
their
childhood,
a
great
famine
struck
the
country
where
hansel
and
gretel
lived
it
left
the
rich
secluded
from
the
middling
and
poor
classes.
The
merchant
class
fought
to
survive
and
the
poorest
of
the
poor
plummeted
into
utter
starvation.
A
The
woodcutter
and
his
wife,
along
with
hansel
and
gretel,
eventually
struggled
to
stay,
fed
the
recurring
moments
of
starvation,
gradually
caused
the
woodcutter's
wife
to
choose
selfishness.
One
evening
after
hanson
and
gretel
had
been
tucked
into
bed,
the
woman
approached
her
husband.
We
must
survive
the
upcoming
winter.
We
must
she
started.
A
A
If
we
leave
them
there,
they
will
surely
starve.
He
cried,
and
if
we
keep
them
here,
we
will
all
surely
starve.
She
replied.
Little
did
the
woodcutter
and
his
wife
know.
Hansel
and
gretel
have
been
listening
to
their
whole
conversation.
Our
mother
does
not
want
us
anymore.
Well,
gretel
shkrettal
father
will
not
allow
her
to
get
rid
of
us.
Hansel
replied
attempting
to
calm
gretel
down,
oh,
but
what
will
father
do
once?
We
are
left
alone
with
our
mother.
Gretel
asked,
I
think
it
through
he
replied
now.
Hansel
was
very
smart.
A
His
plans
of
action
were
always
calculated
and
efficient.
The
next
day
before
they
were
ordered
to
start
on
the
household
shores,
hansel
ran
half
a
mile
down
to
the
lake.
He
gathered
dozens
of
skipping
stones
when
he
returned
home.
Hansel
could
see
that
his
mother
and
sister
were
packing
up
for
what
looked
like
a
normal
journey
into
the
woods,
though,
hansel
knew
that
this
time
their
mother
had
different
plans
for
them.
A
He
held
his
sack
of
skipping
stones
tight,
as
he
approached
his
mother
times
are
tough,
my
dear
children,
you
must
venture
into
the
forest
to
help
your
father
with
his
work.
She
declared,
but
both
children
started
no
butts
their
mother,
scolded
and
so
hansel
gretel
and
their
mother
journeyed
into
the
thick
wooded
forest.
It
was
as
eerie
as
thick
fog
on
a
stormy
night.
The
sky
was
dark,
gray
and
the
trees
were
black
and
gloomy.
A
Luckily,
hansel
had
remembered
to
drop
the
shimmering
stones
on
the
ground
every
few
feet
so
that
they
could
follow
them
back
on
their
return
home
hansel.
What
is
it
that
you
think
you're
up
to
their
mother,
shouted
impatiently,
mother,
mother,
look
at
those
squirrels
in
a
tree.
I
swear.
They
are
dancing
as
if
they
are
fit
for
the
ball.
Gretel
cried
using
her
quick
wit
in
order
to
distract
their
mother.
A
Gretel
knew
exactly
what
hansel
was
up
to
she
pieced
it
together
as
she
watched
their
mother's
face
scrunch
up.
Where
I
see
no
squirrels,
I
see
no
dancing
their
mother
exclaimed.
Now
confused
and
distracted,
giving
hansel
time
to
catch
up.
Oh
hurry
on
up.
We
only
need
to
travel
a
little
bit
further
than
mother
grumbled.
A
A
They
traveled
for
a
while
hansel,
occasionally
dropping
stones
until
they
reached
a
small
clearing,
their
mad
mother
ordered
hansel
and
gretel
to
sit
on
a
dead
log.
I
am
going
to
gather
wood
stay
here
and
I
will
come
back
for
you
shortly.
She
lied.
The
children
stayed
seated
reluctantly.
They
waited
and
waited
and
waited,
but
their
mother
never
returned
for
them.
Hansel
began
to
worry
for
their
safety.
A
He
cried
to
gretel
what
if
we
are
attacked
or
eaten,
what
about
wolves
bears
cougars
raccoons
gretel,
oh
gretel.
What
are
we
going
to
do?
I
will
feel
it
out.
She
replied
getting
up
from
her
log.
She
took
hansel's
hand
and
the
two
followed
his
trail
of
stones,
their
flat
surfaces
shimmered
in
the
moonlight
hansel
and
gretel
finally
arrived
back
at
home
at
the
break
of
dawn.
However,
they
were
so
tired
that
they
both
immediately
fell
asleep
in
front
of
their
cottage
door.
A
They
awoke
tucked
in
their
beds,
to
the
sound
of
the
woodcutter
and
his
wife,
arguing.
How
could
you
leave
our
beloved
children
alone
in
the
forest
they
heard
their
father
asked?
Sadly,
we
will
we
will
all
starve
if
they
stay
here.
There
are
too
many
mouths
and
not
enough
food.
It
is
the
only
way.
The
only
way
she
replied
now,
hansel
and
gretel
surely
knew
their
luck
was
over.
Hansel
tried
to
think
of
a
way
to
get
the
two
of
them
out
of
this
mess.
A
He
looked
over
in
search
of
the
skipping
stones,
since
they
were
nowhere
to
be
found.
Hansel
figured
the
mischievous
bird
had
stolen
them.
Hopeless,
hansel
and
gretel
went
back
to
their
beds
and
waited
for
their
mother
to
come
and
take
them
into
the
forest.
Sure
enough.
The
woodcutter's
wife
made
her
way
up
to
the
room
to
retrieve
them.
She
ordered
hansel
into
his
walking
boots
and
gretel
into
her
washing
clothes
off.
They
went
once
more
before
they
left.
However,
the
woodcutter
secretly
slipped
hansel,
a
small
loaf
of
bread.
A
Hansel
saw
the
look
of
despair
on
his
dear
father's
face
hansel
slipped
bread
into
his
pocket,
crushing
it
into
mostly
crumbs
and
sadly
followed
his
mother
behind
his
beloved
sister
every
few
freaks.
He
dropped
these
breadcrumbs
on
the
ground.
Soon,
their
mother
grew
suspicious
of
hansel
hansel.
What
is
it
that
you
think
you
are
up
to
she
shouted
gretel
hearing.
A
This
quickly
came
up
with
a
way
to
distract
their
mother
mother,
mother,
a
wild
forest
fairy
just
flew
into
your
hair,
panicked,
hansel
and
greta's
mother
began
to
shake
and
squirm
she
disheveled
her
hair
and
screeched.
With
fear.
This
gave
hansel
time
to
catch
up.
You
children
will
be
the
death
of
me
hurry
along
now.
Their
mother
grumbled
they
traveled
for
a
few
more
miles
until
they
came
to
a
very
small
clearing,
even
smaller
than
the
previous
I'm
going
to
find
a
good
place
to
chop
wood.
Both
of
you
stay
put.
A
I
will
come
back
for
you
shortly.
She
commanded
and
declared
so
the
children
waited
and
waited
and
waited,
but
their
mother
never
returned
for
them.
Hansel
offered
gretel
what
little
bread
was
left.
This
is
not
what
you
have
been
dropping
on
the
ground.
Gretel
remembered,
I
dropped
most
of
our
skipping
stones
last
time.
Mother
led
us
down
a
different
route
today
and
that
stupid
bird
must
have
stolen
all
of
those
stones.
The
breadcrumbs
will
be
here
in
the
morning
and
we
can
follow
them
on
our
return
home
hansel
replied
in
the
morning
hansel.
A
A
Let's
just
promise
we
will
get
out
of
here.
Uncle
said
interrupting
his
sister.
They
promised
each
other
and
then
relaxed
into
a
very
small
glade
resting
their
feet
and
playing
guessing
games.
Suddenly
their
noses
were
filled
with
an
oddly
sweet
aroma.
The
children
followed
the
wonderful
scent.
It
grew
stronger
and
more
delicious
mouse
dripping
with
jewel
hansel
and
gretel
finally
reached
it
in
front
of
their
eyes
and
noses
sat
a
house
made
entirely
out
of
delicious
looking
sweets.
A
The
roof
was
coated
in
fluffy
white
icing,
pink,
sticky,
stirrup,
drizzled
and
dripped
along
the
sides
of
the
dark
chocolate
exterior.
A
gumdrop
door
frame
was
shopping
with
sparkling
icing,
sugar
and
frothy
milk,
chocolate
river
flowed
under
a
gingerbread
bridge
that
led
to
the
gingerbread
door
and
a
lollipop
garden,
sat
in
front
of
a
large
crystallized
sugar
window.
A
A
What
little
pretties
have
come
to
my
house
today,
screeched
nod
voice,
hansel
and
gretel
stopped
short
and
stared
at
one
another.
Each
was
messy
and
covered
in
candy.
They
whisper,
shouted
in
unison,
oh
two
little
ones
to
enjoy
the
voice.
Screeched
again,
hansel
and
gretel
turned
and
stared
at
a
very
small
woman,
with
scraggly
hair
wearing
a
long
pink
dress.
She
was
very
strange,
looking
and
smelled
quite
funny,
a
little
too
sweet.
A
A
After
a
while
of
standing
outside
the
woman
popped,
her
jagged
tube
head
out
of
the
house
and
beckoned
gretel
come
in
come
in
my
my
you
are
very
pretty
with
this.
Alongside
her
idea
of
hansel
stuffing
his
face
in
the
interior
of
the
house,
gretel
eventually
followed
inside
when
gretel
entered
the
house,
she
immediately
heard
the
gingerbread
jaw
shut
heavily
behind
her
that
the
entire
inside
of
the
candy
house
was
made
of
solid
steel
inside
the
house
were
bags
and
bags
of
brilliant
gold
coins.
A
Gretel
whipped
her
head
back
around
to
see
that
hansel
was
locked
up
in
a
cage
hanging
directly
over
top
of
a
boiling
pot
of
water.
This
woman
was
no
woman
at
all.
She
was
an
evil
witch
now
go
sit
at
the
table.
Little
pretty
the
evil
witch
commander.
Gretel
help
me
slice,
those
chops
we're
going
to
fatten
him
up.
She
exclaimed
excitedly
and
pointed
over
to
hansel.
A
Now
gretel
understood
the
evil
witch's
plan.
She
had
used
her
candidate
house
to
lure
them
inside
so
that
she
could
eat
them
up
for
dinner,
greta
thought
all
hope
was
lost
and
she
sat
at
the
large
metal
table
slicing
meat
she
sobbed
and
sliced.
She
sliced
and
sobbed
gretel
filled
three
large
buckets
full
with
fatty
food
for
the
old
woman
to
cook
over
her
large
boiling
pot,
poor
hansel
sat
anxiously
thinking
of
a
way
to
escape.
He
watched
as
gretel
threw
the
scraps
of
bones
into
a
separate
pile
aside.
The
buckets
of
sliced
meat.
A
A
What
do
you
think
you're
doing
get
back
to
work
the
evil
selfish
witch
sweet?
Once
more,
I
think
I
saw
I
think
I
saw
a
dragon
outside
gretel
cried
convincingly
hansel
held
back
laughter
since
gretel's
claims
were
getting
a
little
more
and
more
ridiculous,
a
dragon.
You
say
the
evil
witch
questioned,
oh
goodness,
that
was
most
definitely
a
dragon.
I
saw
it
will
surely
burn
down
the
forest
with
its
fiery
breath,
and
then
your
candy
house
will
be
revealed
to
all
the
grown-ups
in
the
land.
Gretel
declared.
A
How
will
you
ever
catch
children
if
your
candy
house
is
not
secret
to
the
grown-ups?
Gretel
questioned
her
with
a
sweet
voice
that
was
sweet,
a
syrup
that
dripped
from
the
roof.
With
this
the
evil
witch
unlocked
the
steel
gingerbread
door
and
ran
outside
in
search
of
the
supposed
dragon
hansel
quickly,
motioned
gretel
to
hand
in
one
of
the
bones
lying
on
the
scrap,
pile
gretel
held
up
a
large
bone,
but
hansel
shook
his
head.
A
He
told
her
his
plan
just
in
time
for
them
to
hear
the
evil
witch
hustling
back.
Just
as
gretel
sat
down
at
the
large
metal
table,
the
evil
witch
stormed
into
the
house.
Looking
puzzled.
Well,
no
dragon
in
sight,
not
even
the
tip
of
a
tail
or
the
smell
of
smoke.
She
exclaimed.
Perhaps
he
smelled
you
coming
gretel,
replied
frankly,
continuing
to
chop
up
the
meat
dragons
have
a
sharp
sense
of
smell.
A
You
know
she
said
curtly
chop
larger,
the
larger
the
better
little
pretty
the
evil,
which
demanded
closing
the
steel
door,
but
forgetting
to
lock
it
as
the
evil
witch
focused
on
gretel
slicing
hansel
quickly,
maneuvered
the
thin
bone
around
the
keyhole
of
his
cage
and
quietly
hansel
removed
the
bone
and
waited
patiently
for
his
plan
to
unfold
once
gretel
had
finished
her
slicing.
The
evil
witch
walked
it
over
to
the
pot
located
directly
underneath
hansel.
Well,
what
are
you
waiting
for?
Little
pretty
help
me
get
this
food
into
the
pot.
A
The
evil
which
ordered
gretel
the
pot
doesn't
look
quite
hot
enough.
Gretel
said
I
will
dip
your
little
feet
in
and
we
can
check
the
evil
witch
sneered.
How
can
you
trust
that?
I
will
say
it
is
hot
enough
I
will
surely
lie
and
the
food
will
never
be
cooked
enough
for
my
brother
to
eat.
She
replied
the
evil
witch
furrowed,
her
brow
and
looked
from
the
pot
to
gretel
and
back
again,
oh,
I
suppose,
you're
right
stay
there.
I
would
check
to
see
if
the
water
is
almost
at
boil.
A
Gretel
remained
behind
as
the
evil
witch
approached.
The
pot
gretel
waited
for
hansel's
signal,
just
as
the
evil
selfish
witch
brought
the
tip
of
her
long
crooked
nose
into
the
boiling
water
hansel
kicked
open
the
cage
door.
This
gave
gretel
the
signal
to
push
the
evil
witch
into
the
boiling
pot
of
water.
The
evil
witch
toppled
over
into
the
pot
just
in
time
for
hansel
to
land
on
her
head,
avoiding
the
hot
water
beneath
his
feet.
A
However,
the
children
found
that
the
breadcrumbs
had
been
eaten
and
replaced
by
their
favorites
stolen
skipping
stones
by
none
other
than
that
rascal
bird,
who
had
stolen
them
the
bird
chirped.
Happily
as
it
finished
its
last
breadcrumb.
Apparently,
the
bird
has
been
hungry
too
hansel
and
gretel
gathered
their
skipping
stones
into
the
bags
of
gold
and
made
their
way
home
when
they
arrived.
They
ran
in
to
embrace
their
father,
who
had
become
widowed
after
their
mother
had
died.
Their
father
welcomed
them
home
and
apologized
to
them
for
letting
their
mother
selfishness
overcome
him.
