What’s the magic word? Abracadabra, Alakazam, Open Sesame? No, it’s Bricklebrit! This magical phrase causes a poor boy’s donkey to cough up gold–literally. In this Brothers Grimm fairy tale, three treasures come to three goodhearted brothers: a wishing table, a gold-producing donkey, and a magic club. When a shifty innkeeper and his talking goat steal these treasures, the brothers must win them back. In order to do so, they must use the best magic: the power of family.
