(2) K-3 This Africa-set telling showcases Hansel's quick thinking and Gretel's bravery. Persecuted by their stepmother and the witch, the kids are also eyed by jungle animals, frogs, and spiders. Each spread (of striated cut-paper and oil paint collage in myriad patterns) is attentively designed and illustrated, with special care paid to facial expressions and body language.
