The program is a retelling of the legend of the Pied Piper of Hamelin. Some of the dialog is taken from the 1843 children's poem The Pied Piper of Hamelin by the British writer Robert Browning. Along with Snoopy's Reunion, What Have We Learned, Charlie Brown?, Is This Goodbye, Charlie Brown?, the movie Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown (And Don't Come Back!!) and the mini-series This is America, Charlie Brown, this is one of the few times in the Peanuts franchise in which adults' faces are seen and in which adults speak in comprehensible English instead of the iconic "WAH-WAH" trombone sound.

  • It's the Pied Piper, Charlie Brown is a retelling to Sally by Charlie Brown of the story how the Pied Piper of Hamelin (portrayed by Snoopy) chased away all the mice (changed by Charlie Brown from rats because, upon the story saying that the rats fought the dogs and killed the cats, Sally is terrified of rats) from the town of Hamlet. The Peanuts kids substitute some characters, Snoopy being the Pied Piper Beagle with his contract being for a year's supply of dog food. Snoopy plays a concertina (squeezebox, with presumably David Benoit doing the honors). The special breaks Peanuts tradition in that it shows adults, who speak audible language (unlike most other Peanuts specials in which adults are only heard off stage speaking in "wah wah" sound of a muted trombone).

  • It's the Pied Piper, Charlie Brown is a retelling to Sally by Charlie Brown of the story how the Pied Piper of Hamelin (portrayed by Snoopy) chased away all the mice (changed by Charlie Brown from rats because, upon the story saying that the rats fought the dogs and killed the cats, Sally is terrified of rats) from the town of Hamlet.

The special breaks Peanuts tradition in that it shows adults, who speak audible language (unlike most other Peanuts specials in which adults are only heard off stage speaking in "wah wah" sound of a muted trombone). The other good example was the This is America, Charlie Brown miniseries, which portrayed adult historical figures alongside the kids.
