Hello Hallein – New Children’s Book: “The Singing Family from Salzburg”

THE SINGING FAMILY FROM SALZBURG by Margret Springl

Based on the famous film “The Sound of Music.” A children’s book about the life story of the Trapp family from Salzburg.

The Trapp family is at the heart of a lovingly crafted children’s book that tells the story of the Trapp family, on which the film “The Sound of Music” is also based. With 10 Oscar nominations, the film is one of the most successful productions in film history. The story of young Maria, how she comes to work as a governess for the noble family, and how they

finds happiness by singing and making music together. The book features many beautiful, child-friendly illustrations of the city of Salzburg and its historic landmarks. For more information, visit: www.salzburgbuch.com

This year, the film celebrates its 50th anniversary. The theme of “The Sound of Music” is therefore very much in the spotlight. The book is available in German and English at the Keltenbuchhandlung bookstore in Hallein.

(Note: The sentence “how she comes to work as a governess for the noble family and how they” breaks off abruptly in the original and then continues in the next column/line with “singing and making music together…”. This is how it is printed in the newspaper article.)
