Their stepmother was very unkind and said they didn’t have enough food for the children.<br/>One day, she told her husband that he must take Hansel and Gretel deep into the forest and leave them there. “They are old enough now<br/>to take care of themselves!” said the mean stepmother.<br/>The woodcutter who dearly loved his children was very sad.
