A light and lively version by the classic Brothers Grimm.
Hansel and Gretel is a Milkbook interactive fairy tale 100% “Made in Italy” that focuses on quality content: text which is punctuated by pleasant wordplay, beautiful and imaginative pictures, and friendly and intuitive interactions.

“We have no money for food,” the stepmother said one evening to her husband,
 “We must get rid of your children.” So start the troubles of the brother and sister … and they soon end up in the clutches of a horrible child eating witch.

Will they be able to get away?
 While the narrator (available in Italian, English and Spanish) tells the story, the children interact with the characters of the tale and the many animals of the forest.
Tap the screen and listen to the birds, rabbits and owls! See how fast the squirrel runs away! Spy in on the secret sinister plan of their stepmother! Lend a hand and help Gretel push the witch into the oven!
