This book is about
The Hansel and Gretel fairytale
My favourite part of the book is
When the birds show the children how to get home. I like the bit where they dropped cake too.
I would also like to say
The only thing I didn't like about the story was that the house wasn't made of sweets. It's supposed to be made of sweets and this is why I like the story because I like sweets. That is why it is 4 stars not 5.
