Pied Piper Of Hamelin, The
by: Holden/Drahos Zak, Robert

Boston, Houghton Mifflin, 1st, 1998, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. Color illustrations by Drahos Zak. A retelling of the classic story finds the town of Hamelin plagued by rats until its citizens hire a piper to play a sweet tune that will lure away the pests, but when the people refuse to pay him, he also lures away their children. This magnificent picture book--originally published in Australia--is as tall and creepy as illustrator Drahos Zak's personification of the Pied Piper himself. Clean copy.
