The Peddler's Road by Matthew Cody

Have you ever wondered what happened to the lost children taken by the Pied Piper? All will become clear in this fairy tale within a fairy tale. Modern day New Yorkers Max, and her brother Carter, accompanied their father on a trip to Hamelin, Germany for his summer of research into some lost fairy tales. Huge rats, a portal, witches and other creatures populate this magical story for the late elementary set. This first book in a trilogy will be published in October.
