Dear Dina,

I am glad to write this letter to you. It is nice to have a pen pal. There are many things we can talk about.

I live in Canberra. It is the capital city of Australia. But it is not crowded. There are not many industries or office here. The most interesting place in the city is the Parliament building. It has a tall tower over it. The Parliament building is the office of the Prime Minister of Australia. The weather in Canberra is very hot and dry in summer. It is cold in winter but it does not snow. Most people like to watch rugby during the winter. My dad and my brother sometimes like to watch rugby at the stadium. They usually eat meat pies while they are watching. Have you tasted meat pie? It is delicious.

I have to go now. Please tell me about the city where you live. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind regards,

Maggie

The Good Stepmother

The old witch locked Hansel in a cage and set Gretel to clean the house. She planned to eat them both. Each night the children cried and begged the witch to let them go.

Meanwhile, at home, their stepmother was beginning to wish she had never tried to get rid of the children. “I must find them,” she said and set off into the forest.

Many hours later, when her feet were tired from walking and her lips were dry from thirst, she came to the cottage belonging to the witch. The stepmother peeped through the window. Her heart cried out when she saw the two children.

She picked up the broom leaning against the door and crept inside. The witch was putting some stew in the oven when the stepmother gave her an almighty push. The witch fell into the oven and the stepmother shut the door.

‘Children, I have come to save you,’ she said hugging them tightly. I have done a dreadful thing.

I hope in time you will forgive me. Let me take you home and become a family again. They returned to their home and the stepmother became the best mother anyone could wish to have, and of course they lived happily ever after!
