The Pied Piper of Hamelin - By Robert Browning
The Pied Piper of Hamelin is the title character of a legend from the town of Hamelin (Hameln), Lower Saxony, Germany.
The legend dates back to the Middle Ages. The earliest references describe a piper, dressed in multicoloured ("pied") clothing, who was a rat catcher hired by the town to lure rats away[1] with his magic pipe. When the citizens refused to pay for this service as promised, he retaliated by using his instrument's magical power on their children, leading them away as he had the rats.

    I read these old fairy tales in middle/highschool Why? I went to the library to learn. Not much of that in public schools even in 1960's. (Military dependents schools, first ones hit by liberal ideology).

      We, the people involved in this project, grew up with our parents reading to us these fairy tales. Later, as adults, we started to catch the morals behind our childhood bedtime stories, and that's why we're trying to make them available in original form (or as close as possible translation permitted) for fans of the genre. We hope you have enjoyed the story.
