Echo pripoveduje štiri različne, očarljive zgodbe iz različnih časov in krajev.To je zgodba o odrekanju, družini, prijateljstvu in združujoči moči glasbe. Razdeljen je na štiri različne dele: Ottovo zgodbo v poznih 19. stoletjih v Nemčiji; Friedrichova zgodba leta 1933 v Nemčiji; Mikeova zgodba leta 1935 v Pensilvaniji; in zgodbo Ivy leta 1942 v južni Kaliforniji.
Učenci naj vzpostavijo povezavo med besedilom in samim seboj, tako da ponazorijo svoj najljubši prizor iz Odmeva in opišejo, kaj jim to pomeni.

FAVORITE QUOTE in ECHO by Pam Muñoz Ryan
The midwife gave each baby a special blessing before leaving them with the heartless witch. While she knew this was not the best start in life for them, she blessed Eins, Zwei, and Drei with the idea that despite their hardships and difficult beginnings, they would find a path to happiness. The idea a person can find their way through the darkest of times echoes throughout. Friedrich and his family survive Hitler's atrocities, Mike and his brother get through difficult times in the orphanage, and Ivy's family and the Yamamotos persevere despite the racism and segregation of the time.
“Your fate is not yet sealed. Even in the darkest night, a star will shine, a bell will chime, a path will be revealed.”
