The Pied Piper of Hamelin

(3) K-3 Retold by Renate Raecke. Translated by Anthea Bell. Collected by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. After the people of Hamelin refuse to pay the Pied Piper for ridding their town of rats, he takes his revenge by leading the town's children away. This eerie, faithful retelling includes exact details (the year 1284; 130 children), giving it a ring of authenticity. The sophisticated illustrations have a subdued, foreboding quality suitable for slightly older picture-book readers.
