- MOTIF: MUSIC
- Another recurring theme is the prospect of new beginnings in each story. The characters have to evolve and readjust to new situations and surroundings and be willing to accept new people into their hearts. For example, Mike and Frankie with Mrs. Sturbridge, Mr. Howard, and Mr. & Mrs. Potter.
- The harmonica is a symbol of hope. It travels from person to person, providing hope, comfort, and confidence to all who possess it. The factory in Trossingen, Germany provides jobs and hope to those who work there. It is a simple instrument, easily carried, and accessible to all. It becomes very popular in the U.S. In Nazi Germany, however, Hitler deems the instrument not "German enough". Otto playing the harmonica is not only a symbol of hope but one of defiance of the brutal regime.
- For Friedrich, Braham's lullaby is a sign of comfort and his father's unwavering love. Mike and Frankie play “America the Beautiful”, and the song leads them to Mrs. Sturbridge. For Ivy, it’s “Auld Lang Syne”, which is about honoring old memories and being open to new beginnings. Friedrich's father says, “Music does not have a race or a disposition, [it] is a universal language [that] surpasses all distinctions between people."
