Hansel and Gretel can be traced to the Middle Ages, when times were harsh, and poverty, child abandonment, and starvation were common. This classic fairy tale of Germanic origin has been told many times in many cultures. It was recorded by the Brothers Grimm in 1812. The story tells the tale of a young brother and sister who are abandoned by their step-mother in the forest. Left to fend for themselves, they discover an odd house made of candy and cake… and a scary old witch who lives inside.
