Phillip the Small

With a melody, he can make objects and living creatures grow larger or smaller, except himself. He causes some confusion in the town when he makes the cat a predator and the school bell very small. But even his well-intentioned deeds do not bring him success. He reaps that one day with his music. By playing his flute so often, he has become a true master. Enchanted, the people in the marketplace stop and listen to his music.
