In "The Witch's Guide to Cooking with Children," Yoko Tanaka offers a darkly whimsical retelling of the classic tale of Hansel and Gretel. When siblings Hansel and Gretel find themselves lost in the woods, they stumble upon a mysterious cottage that seems to be made of candy and treats. However, the sweet facade hides a sinister reality as they encounter a witch with a taste for mischief and culinary creativity. As the children navigate her enchanted kitchen, they must outsmart her plans while uncovering the secrets of her magical recipes. This modern spin blends humor, adventure, and a hint of danger, making it an engaging read. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
