Help me find the title of a book I read!

I'm looking for a fantasy book I somehow forgot to finish. The main characters are a sister and brother that run away into the sewers.

I remember the town the kids live in has a large tower that makes music of some kind. Also, their baby brother or sister is given a rating based on looks and intelligence and the family has to move to a crappier house because there rating goes down. I think it is a trilogy and is probably considered a children's novel.

I also remember that when they go into the sewers they find a whole community of people who harvest some kind of plant that grows in the sewage.

Thanks everyone!

It's The Wind Singer (The Wind on Fire, Book 1) by William Nicholson. There are also two more books in trilogy: Slaves of Mastery and Firesong.
