Adam GidwitzAdam Gidwitz taught in Brooklyn for eight years. Now, he writes full time - which means he writes for a couple of hours a day, and lies on his couch staring at the ceiling the rest of the time. Adam always writes about things that he's experienced pesonally. So, while all of the dark and grim things in this book really did happen to Hansel and Gretel, they also happened to Adam. Of course, if you've ever had a childhood, they've probably happened to you too. Want to hear more about Adam's harrowing experiences? Visit him online at www.adamgidwitz.com Read More Read Less
