synopsis
In her first cartoon appearance, Witch Hazel lures a pair of obese German tots named Hansel and Gretel into her gingerbread house. Knowing what Hazel has in mind (he's read the book, after all), Bugs Bunny appoints himself the kids' guardian. Although "Der Kinder" manage to escape before they're popped into the oven, Bugs himself is not so lucky, and spends the rest of the picture being pursued by Witch Hazel (loose hairpins and all) all around her bizarrely furnished bungalow. As a bonus, Prince Charming appears as "himself".
