Story Hour: Hansel and Gretel

Event Details

Just in time for Halloween, this spooky Story Hour features Stephen King and Maurice Sendak’s haunting retelling of “Hansel and Gretel.” This is a story about fear and courage, about who to trust and who to doubt, and about the choices we make when things get desperate. We’ll read together, then open it up for discussion, asking what it really means to be brave and how far is too far to go to survive. This version leans into the dark and suspenseful side of the tale, so it’s best suited for grade-school readers and up. All ages are welcome; adults must stay on the premises with children.
