No sleep for the hungry ...

One night, when too hungry to sleep, Hansel and Gretel heard their stepmother convincing their father to leave them in the forest the next morning. "They will never find their way home, and we'll be rid of them," she said.

Why do you think the stepmother said this? 
How did the children feel on that long, cold night?
What would be your advice to Hansel and Gretel?

  12. I think they are really scared because there evil step mum is going to abandon her children. And hansel announced that he will make sure that if the mum is goings to abandon the children he will find away to get them back home using white giant stone but medium size. The mum was bullying the dad because that he loves his children and can never every abandon them because they are alright children the most nices children the dad has every seen I can not believe that hansel is 8 years old and can still suvive for so many year even he doesn't have much food to feed him self and greatal

  13. I think the step mother said she wants her step children in the forest because she wants them to get lost in the forest so she will get lots of money food for food for her self and her husband will watch her eat while he will starve every day and night.
