Book Review of The True Story of Hansel and Gretel

The True Story of Hansel and Gretel
Bonnie avatar reviewed on + 422 more book reviews


By now I've read a WWII book set in just about every European country, with about every horrible tales one could imagine. I learned an awful (descriptor intended)lot that wasn't taught in school, was brought to absolute shock and often tears. Yet this little book about these two Polish children grabbed my heart and squeezed until I thought I just couldn't read another word of such grief. Such grief, and yet, I recommend it. It is a darn good book.
