The Grandchild and the Witch
Once upon a time there lived an old Granny in South Africa. She had her grandchild . The grandmother told her grandchild, ‘I am going to go to America but don’t worry. Oh my dear child, the maid can take care of you. Mom and dad are in Zimbabwe.’

Something strange happened. There lived an old witch who could turn into anybody she wanted to. One time she turned into grandmother. When the grandmother went, nobody knew about the wicked witch when she turned into the grandmother. She made the grandmother hit the grandchild and give her all the dishes to wash. The only way to kill the witch was to break the spell by saying ‘I love you mom’ to the wicked witch. So she said the words and the false grandmother died. So the real one came back and gave the grandchild the biggest hug ever.
