The Secret Garden - LOTS of great stuff for either

For really young - look at the "family" shows that have been on B'way recently - "Chitty", "Mary Poppins", etc.

Also, for lesser done material - look at "An American Tail" and "All Dogs Go To Heaven" (esp. "Home To My Heart." as well as "Oliver and Co."

"Lyle" by Charles Strouse also has some great stuff

All that comes for mind for younger girls would be "Castle on a Cloud" from Les Mis or maybe "I Know Things Now" from Into the Woods. I don't know if that helps at all, but it's all that I can think of...
