Description

What is a day in the life of an opera singer like? Can you scooter around the Warsaw opera house? Do crocodiles live in there? Can you slid inside the Haunted Manor through the chimney? Spend a day with Mieszko and his mum, Elżbieta Wróblewska, at the Polish National Opera and find out.

Mieszko is seven and everywhere he goes, he takes Iggy with him. One day the two go to work with Mieszko’s mum. Mieszko expects the opera house where his mum sings to be a very boring place, but changes his mind when he finds out the amazing things that loom out of the labyrinth of theatre corridors.

Coming at the heels of Mój tata tańczy w balecie (My Dad Dances the Ballet), Moja mama śpiewa w operze (My Mum Sings Opera) is the second book by the duo of writer Iwona Witkowska and photographer Robert Wolański, lifting the curtain on the work of the artists who work at the Polish National Opera. A great read for the whole family!
