Description: Enly and the Buskin' Blues by Jennie Liu Hoping to earn money for band camp tuition, twelve-year-old Enly Wu Lewis starts busking, but his mission quickly turns into a series of misadventures that change how he sees his family, his dreams, and himself. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Twelve-year-old Enly Wu Lewis needs to go to band camp this summer. Itll help him follow in the footsteps of his dad, a musician who died when Enly was too young to even remember him. Enly isnt sure if he has his dads talent, but he wants to find out. Theres just one hitch: The camp is too expensive, and Enlys mom is saving every penny for his older brothers college tuition. So Enly sets out to earn the money for camp on his own by busking—playing music on the sidewalk in the touristy part of town. What could go wrong? For one thing, the only instrument he can afford is a melodica, a cross between a harmonica and a keyboard, which he can only kind of play. And for another thing, its harder than Enly expected to make serious money busking. When someone drops a winning scratch-off lottery ticket into his tip box, Enly thinks its the answer to all his problems. But hell still have to face teenage thieves, his disgruntled best friend, a rogue pet pig, and his own family if he wants to achieve his dreams.
