A literary trail for young readers in Braunschweig

At the Municipal Museum Braunschweig, children's literature meets cultural history: Eva Lezzi reads from The City Detectives. Where is Annabelle? and accompanies the event as part of the special exhibition In One's Own Voice. 75 Years of the Central Council of Jews in Germany. The reading is aimed at children aged 8 and above and opens an intelligent, exciting access to Jewish daily life, friendship, and detective storytelling.

When literature becomes a space of experience

Eva Lezzi combines scientific authority with the ease of a storyteller who directly reaches young listeners. Her children's and youth books rely on clear narratives, cultural diversity, and a language that sparks curiosity without being didactic. In a museum, this literature unfolds a special reading atmosphere: close, focused, and full of discoveries.

A detective team with a sense for nuances

At the center of the book is a group of children from diverse backgrounds. The case of the missing chess player Annabelle unfolds not only as a crime story but also as a narrative about belonging, memory, and forgery. This makes the reading both literarily appealing and pedagogically valuable. The connection of the book reading and the special exhibition sharpens the focus on historical contexts and current questions of identity and coexistence.

The Place: Museum as a quiet resonance space

The Municipal Museum Braunschweig at Steintorwall provides a fitting framework for this author encounter. The venue combines exhibition visits, cultural education, and an intimate atmosphere where language has an immediate effect. This creates a literary experience for families that goes beyond mere reading and connects the museum visit with a narrative impulse.

Why a visit is worthwhile

This event introduces children to demanding topics without losing the joy of reading. Anyone who experiences Eva Lezzi live will encounter linguistic art with attitude, an author experienced in Jewish literature, and a story that intertwines suspense, empathy, and knowledge. An appointment for all who take children's literature as a cultural space seriously and want to experience it together on site.
