The Rat Catcher and Other Stories

What could be more terrifying than a city crawling with rats? In The Ratcatcher, a story eerily similar to the legend of the Piped Piper, readers are taken to an old German town where that's exactly the problem. However, by the end of the tale, it isn't just the rats that have disappeared...where are all the town's children? This and other terrible tales are accompanied by full-color images and illustrations that add some beauty to otherwise dark literary worlds. The fire of readers' imaginations will be lit as they encounter unforgettable storytelling in Gold-tree and Silver-tree, The Devil and his Grandmother, and The King Who Would See Paradise.
