This my favorite tale from childhood. And it reminds folks to always follow through on their promises.

 The Pied Piper of Hamelin by Robert Browning – Browning has a knack for getting hold of creepy stories and making them his own! Happy Reading!

I honestly have no thoughts on this (legit my review on GR is empty haha). I didn’t expect the writing to be …not so simple (read as: convoluted), but considering its first published in 1842 then most probably it’s because I’m just not used to the almost-archaic language. I’m so used to the more simpler storyline that reading this edition felt like it went on a bit longer than I expected.

Wow, this has a harsh ending. Maybe I don't remember the story, but I thought the kids came back. Not in this one. If you have kids who are terrified of losing their parents, I would suggest skipping this story. I hope the townsfolk fire the mayor after his greed lost the town their kids.

At least the kids went to a heaven like place. The Pied Piper is pretty cold. This is a dark story. The nephew did like this story anyway. He gave it 4 stars. He thought the rats following the piper was cool.
