Hansel and Gretel

Stephen King and Maurice Sendak present a new picture book version of the classic Grimm fairy tale. This edition reimagines the story of two brave children lost in a dark and dangerous forest. The project was created in close collaboration with the Maurice Sendak Foundation to honor the beloved creator of Where the Wild Things Are. King provides a personal introduction for this stunning storybook. His writing guides readers into a deliciously daring rendition of the original tale. The book combines King’s literary reputation with Sendak’s iconic illustrations. It stands as a unique collaboration between these two legends of children's literature and horror fiction. This volume is designed as a perfect gift for fans of King, Sendak, and the Brothers Grimm. It offers a fresh perspective on a well-known narrative. The format remains consistent with a picture book structure. Readers seeking a traditional text-only version may find this visual approach less suitable. The work relies on the interplay between King’s words and Sendak’s art to convey its haunting atmosphere.
