The Brave Children

A poor woodcutter could not take care of his children, so he left them in the forest. The children tried finding their way back home but could not. Suddenly, they saw a cottage. But it was made of gingerbread and cookies. The children were hungry and started eating. As they were eating, an old woman came out of the cottage. The children got scared. But the woman took them inside and was kind to them. In reality, she was a witch and ate children. So, at night she put Hansel in a cage. She told Gretel, “I will eat him when he becomes fat.” One day, when she felt the boy was plump enough, she told Gretel to get a pot full of hot water. She wanted to boil the boy. But Gretel was clever. She brought the water. Then she snatched the keys from the witch and pushed her into the hot water pot. The witch died there and then, and Gretel freed her brother. Both took the witch’s gold and returned home.
