Echo by Pam Munoz Ryan

22749539Echo is a beautifully written story about a harmonica.  Although the harmonica isn't magical it has a huge impact on the lives of it's various owners.  The harmonica makes it's way to three different owners throughout the story.  The three children that possess the harmonica are each experiencing some difficult times in their lives.  They each have a great appreciation for music.  They are also very appreciative for small gifts.

Echo is a beautifully written children's novel that could easily be enjoyed by many adults as well.  It's quite long - over 500 pages.  Definitely a book for an avid reader.  Last year my school had a visit by Marsha Skrypuch.  Her books are still requested quite frequently.  I think this would be a good suggestion for her fans.
