The Pied Piper of Hamelin
The town of Hamelin has a huge problem – it is totally infested with rats! And after surviving a plague brought on by rats, the townspeople are understandably terrified of them. The cruel Mayor of Hamelin does nothing to help, and even considers fleeing the town. But when the Mayor’s son meets a friendly Piper who claims he can rid the town of rats, things might just get better… if the Mayor will stop being so callous, deceitful and selfish.
