Week 14 Reading Diary: Brothers Grimm Hunt Unit

This week I decided to read the Brothers Grimm (Hunt) Unit! It was taken from Fairy Tales by the Brothers Grimm.

Hansel and Grethel - The parents tried to get rid of them by bringing them into the forest. Hansel had grabbed white pebbles and threw them to make a trail so that they could find their way back to the house. The second time it happened he couldn't get pebbles but he threw crumbs instead, which the birds ate. They found the witch's house that was made of food. The witch was evil and tried to eat them but they killed the witch and got away. They brought presents from the house back to the father and they all lived happily ever after.

Thumbling - He was a child that was grown as small as a thumb. He would help his father and people found out about him. It was a long journey of tricking others and going through animals to come back home. He is smart, cunning, and just a boy who wants to get back home to his family.

Allerleirauh - It was a girl whose father gave her three beautiful dresses and lots of fur. She ran away from him and ended up working at this other palace. She would go and dance in her pretty dresses during the ball but then return to be the cook and give a gift to the king. This happened three times and on the last time he finally figured out it was her and they were married.
