The Cover of the book.

# data[].attributes.body
In this story, there happen to be multiple conflicts. There are at least three important, or main ones. The first one, and probably one of the more major ones, is trying to find a home. Hansel and Gretel throughout most of the story, are trying to find a home, or some place or purpose in the world. The second occurs when the siblings are separated from each other and have to find each other before they die. Each has a couple chapters in their separate Point Of View, and each has their own different conflicts. The last is after the two reunite and return home. When they return, they find a dragon who is killing everyone. It's up to them to kill the dragon before the dragon kills them then kills everyone else.

"Now hold on a minute. I know what you’re thinking. I am well aware that nobody wants to hear a story that happens before the main characters show up. They’re boring, because they all end exactly the same way. With the main characters showing up. But don’t worry.

This story is like no story you’ve ever heard. You see, Hansel and Gretel don’t just show up at the end of this story.

They show up. And then they get their heads cut off.

Just thought you’d like to know."

Hansel and Gretel: After experiencing major Daddy Issues, the two run away from home and embark on an epic adventure.

How lovely is that scenario?
Faithful Johannes: A servant for a long line of kings, was always faithful.

"Follow Hansel and Gretel as they walk out of their own story and into the wilds—where magic, terror, and a little bit of humor shine like white pebbles lighting the way.

Come on in. It may be frightening, and it’s certainly bloody, but, unlike those other fairy tales you know, this one is true.

Once upon a time, you see, fairy tales were awesome.

In this mischievous and utterly original debut, Hansel and Gretel walk out of their own story and into eight other classic Grimm–inspired tales. As readers follow the siblings through a forest brimming with menacing foes, they learn the true story behind (and beyond) the bread crumbs, edible houses, and outwitted witches.

Fairy tales have never been more irreverent or subversive as Hansel and Gretel learn to take charge of their destinies and become the clever architects of their own happily ever after."

Henry Selik, the man behind Nightmare Before Christmas and Coraline is going to helm a movie adaptation of A Tale Dark And Grimm.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Last year was a rough time for acclaimed stop-motion animation director Henry Selick ( The Nightmare Before Christmas, ), who dropped out from directing a 3D stop-motion treatment of Coraline author Neil Gaiman's award-winning novel The Graveyard Book - now being envisioned as a live-action adaptation with Ron Howard potentially at the helm - and was thereafter unable to gain funding for his original stop-motion project The Shadow King (originally, ShadeMaker), even from the lauded animation studio, Laika ( ParaNorman).

K5 International stepped in to provide financing for Shadow King earlier this year, so the tedious (yet, ultimately-rewarding) stop-motion photography process on the film has been ongoing since then. Nonetheless, it would appear that Selick has gone ahead and settled on his followup directorial effort, now that he's set to helm a live-action movie version of the children's book, A Tale Dark & Grimm.

Here is a semi-official plot synopsis for the well-received Tale Dark & Grimm novel written by author Adam Gidwitz:

Hansel and Gretel walk out of their own story and into eight other classic Grimm (and Grimm-inspired) fairy tales. An irreverent, witty narrator leads us through encounters with witches, warlocks, dragons, and the devil himself. As the siblings roam a forest brimming with menacing foes, they learn the true story behind the famous tales, as well as how to take charge of their destinies and create their own happily ever after. Because once upon a time, fairy tales were awesome.

The initial report from Deadline includes a quote from Selick, wherein he refers to Gidwitz's book as "a hilarious, deeply inventive tale about survival in the world of fairytales and what it takes to forgive one's parents." On those grounds alone, you can see the similarities between Tale Dark & Grimm and the darkly-fantastical storyline (with a coming of age narrative subtext) in Coraline; and thus, the reason that Gidwitz's fairy tale blend (and exploration of the "true stories" behind them) would be all the more appealing to Selick.

Admittedly, Selick's directing track record with stop-motion animation - which includes the Roald Dahl novel adaptation James and the Giant Peach - is far more impressive than his work in the live-action medium, so that puts a bit of a damper on the news that he's adapting Tale Dark & Grimm with flesh-and-blood characters onscreen.

Then again, the sole live-action flick on Selick's resume is Monkeybone, a twisted comedy/fantasy (starring Brendan Fraser) that's mostly interested in weirding out adults - so chances are, Tale Dark & Grimm will turnout better, even if the adapted script by Jon Gunn and John W. Mann ( Mercy Street) isn't all that grand. Not to mention, between this project and Disney's upcoming Into the Woods musical adaptation, this upcoming small wave of fairy tale mashups sounds more promising than the larger wave of fairy tale re-imaginings that proceeded it.

We'll keep you updated on the status of A Tale Dark & Grimm as the story develops.
