Book Bunch Reads The Last Holiday Concert for December

About the Book
It didn't sound like much, but it was a big idea. A very big idea.
It all started when Hart Evans
zinged a rubber band that hit Mr. Meinert, the chorus director.
Actually, it started before that, when Mr. Meinert learned he was out of
a job because the town budget couldn't afford music and art teachers.
Mr. Meinert got so mad at Hart that he told the sixth graders he'd had
it -- they could produce the big holiday concert on their own. Or not.
It was all up to them.
What happens when a teacher steps
aside and lets the kids run the show? Not what Mr. Meinert would have
predicted. And not what Hart Evans would have guessed, not at all.
