5、les and froze the wheat.Hansel and Gretels family had nothing to eat but last years moldy potatoes.Their father became weak-willed and faint,and their stepmothers once glad face grew thin and sharp.Hansel almost envied his sister,who was too young to recall happier times.One morning,Father beckoned
6、the children.“Come with me for a walk in the woods.Perhaps we can find some mushrooms.”Gretel happily followed.Hansel and Gretel Level U4“Where are we going?”Hansel asked.Father turned his head,glancing back over his shoulder.Hansel spied their stepmother watching from the front window,and he got a
7、bad feeling.Father furtively squeezed a small crust of bread into Hansels hand and whispered,“Here,our last bit of bread.”Hansel wanted to tear the bread in two,give one half to Gretel,and gobble down the other,but he couldnt shake the worry from his mind.Something about the way his stepmother had g
8、lared at them from the window made him uneasy.Though his mouth watered,Hansel regretfully tore the bread into crumbs and dropped them as he walked,marking their path as Father trudged deeper and deeper into the forest.5Then,in a dark dell,Father stopped,his hands and voice shaking.“Your stepmother a
9、nd I dont have enough to feed you.There is a village just over this hill where you may find another family.”Hansel hesitatedhe felt sick to his stomach.“Do as I say,”Father pleaded,“for your sisters sake.”With that,he slipped into the shadows and hurried away.Gretel cried out and chased him,but she
10、soon fell behind.“Dont worry,”Hansel said,holding her shoulder,“I made a path.”He pointed to the breadcrumbs,bright against the dark forest floor.Gretel sniffled and stayed close as they followed the crumbs toward home.Hansel and Gretel Level U6“You didnt make a very good path,”Gretel pouted.Hansel
11、thought hed dropped a crumb every three steps,but he kept losing the way.Suddenly,a little sparrow swooped down,grabbed a crumb,and fluttered into the trees.“Birds are eating your crumbs!”Gretel cried.Though they searched,Hansel and Gretel could not find the path.Shadows pressed close all around,but
12、 Hansel remained calm.“Father said the village isnt far away,”he said.The gloom grew deeper and deeper.Just when he was sure Father had lied to them,Hansel saw light beaming through the trees.“Looktheres a clearing up ahead.”7The woods parted to reveal an astounding scene.In a sunny meadow sat a qua
13、int cottage made entirely of sweets!Frosting icicles dripped from the eaves,ribbon candy lined the windows,and slabs of chocolate shingled the roof.Seized by hunger,the children stumbled forward,broke off pieces of the house,and devoured them.The sweetness on Hansels tongue almost made him dizzy,and
14、 he didnt hear the door swing open.“Do I hear little mouths nibbling on my house?”a small voice said.A tiny old woman with cloudy eyes and a smile as sweet as her candy house beckoned them.“Please,come in!”Swooning with sugar,Hansel and Gretel happily followed her inside.Hansel and Gretel Level U8Th
15、e old woman chuckled as she blindly felt her way around the small house,bringing plate after plate of gingerbread,cake,and pie.When the children were finally full,she made up an enormous feather bed and then drew a treasure chest from her shelf.“I dont keep many toys around,but I have these old thin
16、gs,”she said,tossing Hansel something green and shiny.It was an emerald the size of his fist!He and his sister played marbles with the huge gemstones until they dozed off by the crackling fire.9Breakfast was waffles piled with strawberries,peaches,and whipped cream.“Im so happy to have company,”the
17、old woman sang.“I wonder,though,if you would mind doing a few chores for me.My eyesight isnt so good anymore.”“Of course!”Hansel cried.The woman handed Gretel a broom and pointed Hansel to a broken candy-cane latch on a high window.“Its too tall for me.Maybe you can climb into that birdcage and reac
18、h it from there?”A huge empty birdcage hung from the rafters near the window.Hansel stood on the table and hoisted himself inside.He heard a click!as the cage door swung shut behind him.Hansel and Gretel Level U10Gretel didnt see the cage door close,but she heard the click and saw a wicked smile fla
19、sh across the old womans face.Hansel jostled the door,but it was latched tight.“What happened?”Gretel asked.“Get back to work!”the woman snarled,her voice suddenly low and cruel.Gretel gasped.“Isnt it comfortable up there?”the old woman cooed at Hansel.“Heres some more cake to keep you occupied.Your
20、e a bit thin now,but youll fatten up soon enough.”The hair stood up on the back of Gretels neck,but she was too afraid to object.“Is there anything else I can help you with?”she asked the old woman,masking her shaking voice with false cheer.“Oh,theres plenty,”the woman hissed,bringing out an old mop
21、,a rusty bucket,and a dirty rag that looked especially loathsome against the sugared walls of the candy house.11Gretel scrubbed the floors,shook out the bedding,and washed the dishes,always with one eye on the old woman.Every day,the woman shoved another mound of treats into her brothers cage,then r
22、eached up and seized his arm in her clawlike grasp.As time passed,Hansels arm filled out and grew soft.The woman smiled in a way that turned Gretel cold.Gretel was too small to reach the cage or fight the woman.She felt helpless,but one evening as she swept up after supper,she spotted a chicken bone
23、 in the dustpan,and it gave her an idea.After nightfall,Gretel tossed the bone into Hansels cage.“Give this to her instead when she grabs your arm,”she whispered.From then on,when the woman reached up for Hansels arm,she pinched the bone.“Why arent you getting fat?”she demanded,growing more frustrat
24、ed each day.Hansel and Gretel Level U12Finally,the old woman cursed under her breath.“Im not waiting any longer.Girl,fill that big crock with water,and fetch enough wood for a hot fire!”Gretels stomach dropped.She felt sick,but she did as she was told.When the water began to bubble,the old woman tot
25、tered to Hansels cage.She had to stand on a chair to open the door.13This was Gretels chance!With all her strength,Gretel swung her broom at the cage,knocking it from its hook.As the cage and Hansel came crashing down,the woman stumbled backward and fell.Hansel squirmed free and leaped to his feet.A
26、s the old woman slowly stood,Hansel and Gretel rushed at her together,pushed her into the open cage,and slammed the door shut,trapping her.“You wicked childrenlet me out!”Hansel snatched the treasure chest from the shelf,and together the children fled into the forest.Hansel and Gretel Level U14They
27、ran until both were exhausted.They were back where theyd started,lost in the woods with darkness coming on,but Gretel felt stronger and less afraid than before.They decided to head downhill in search of home.“Whats that?”Gretel whispered.The sound of a distant voice calling their names seeped throug
28、h the trees.Still afraid,the children ducked into the underbrush.The voice came closer and began to sound more familiar.Just before the source came into view,Gretel realized who it was.15“Father!”she shouted,leaping into the mans arms.He was thin and ragged,his eyes red from weeping.“My precious chi
29、ldren!”he cried,swinging Gretel into the air.“Im so sorry for what I did I sent your stepmother away,and Ive been searching for you ever since!”The family was overcome with happiness,but then Father got a sad look in his eyes.“We still have no food,”he admitted.“Soon we will have all the food we cou
30、ld hope to eat,”Hansel announced,revealing the chest of gemstones.Their weeping turned to laughter that rang through the forest.Together,they headed over the hill toward home.Hansel and Gretel Level U16Glossaryenvied(v.)felt jealous of another persons qualities,belongings,or good fortune(p.3)furtive
