Books like Brundibar by Tony Kushner


Aninku and Pepicek, two brothers, find their mother sick one morning. They have no money to buy milk, so they try to make some by singing in the town square, but a hurdy-gurdy grinder, Brundibár, chases them away. With the help of three talking animals and three hundred schoolchildren, they defeat the bully. Brundibár is based on a Czech opera for children that was performed fifty-five times by the children of Terezin, a Nazi concentration camp in 1943. The story of this musical adventure combines elements of fantasy, adventure, and humor.
