With this first book in Russell Brand’s Trickster Tales
series, the famed comedian, actor, and bestselling author
delivers a hilarious retelling of an old fairytale favorite
that will appeal to adults and children alike. Once upon a time, long ago, in a time that seemed, to those
present, exactly like now except their teeth weren’t so
clean and more things were wooden, there was a town called
Hamelin. The people of Hamelin were a pompous bunch who
loved themselves and their town so much that if it were
possible they would have spent all day zipped up in a space
suit smelling their own farts. But space suits hadn’t been
invented yet so they couldn’t. Then one day without warning a gang of rats bowled into the
town and began causing a right rumpus… So begins Russell Brand’s wildly funny and surprisingly wise
retelling of the classic tale The Pied Piper of Hamelin.
Whether you’re a kid or a grown-up kid, you’ll be chuckling
the whole way through this zany story that bypasses Brand’s
more adult humor for the outrageous, the madcap, and the
just plain silly. Maybe you’ve heard about the Pied Piper before, with his
strange music and those pompous townspeople and pesky rats.
Or maybe you haven’t. But one thing is for sure: you’ve
never heard it quite like this.
