"PIED PIPER of SOUTH SHORE"
"Pied Piper of South Shore,Toys and Tragedy in Chicago," is the true story of the life and death of a beloved toy store owner Manny lazar, known as the Pied Piper of South Shore, who was shot and killed in front of his wife, Belle, by a Chicago gang member in 1970. But it's also the story of two children of immigrants, their American dream, and the richly diverse neighborhood each falling prey to the brutality of gangs. There is a foreword by Mandy Patinkin, a long time Wee Folks customer and two appendices at the end of the book; one recalls the stores of 79th Street, from Stony Island Avenue to Jeffery Avenue, and the other tells the stories about how some of the most popular toys and games in the 1950s and 1960s got their start.
