Reviews
"This fast and furious plot will have readers alternately cringing and cheering at Enly's impulsiveness, fully invested in this protagonist's success. While the tone is light, some serious issues are gently explored: gentrification, grief, wealth and lack of it, family ties, and friendship."--School Library Journal, "Encourages readers who need to be seen as well as those who need to see . . . I tip my hat to Liu--and put a tip in the hat for Enly!"--Rebecca Petruck, author of Boy Bites Bug and Steering Toward Normal, "Enly Wu Lewis is a sixth grader who is living in the shadow of his high-achieving older brother, Spencer. His white father died when he was young and his Chinese mother struggles to make ends meet in their town, which is undergoing gentrification. Enly wants to be a musician like his dad and gets free music lessons from Miss Maisie, but she only teaches him show tunes. When his BFF Pinky shows him a flyer about a summer music camp, he's excited to go, until he learns of the $2,800 tuition. Knowing that even if his mother had that kind of money, she would put it towards Spencer's college tuition, Enly and Pinky devise a plan for him to busk downtown, but a piano is not portable. A series of blunders and high jinks lead to Enly to a melodica, an extremely lucky lottery ticket, and even more misfortune. This fast and furious plot will have readers alternately cringing and cheering at Enly's impulsiveness, fully invested in this protagonist's success. While the tone is light, some serious issues are gently explored: gentrification, grief, wealth and lack of it, family ties, and friendship. VERDICT A recommended realistic fiction title with humor and depth."--School Library Journal, "In Jennie Liu's witty and wise new book, dreams come true with the help of family, friends, and a special community." --Bobbie Pyron, author of Lucky Strike, "A heart-warming story with many lessons about taking responsibility for attaining what you most desire, even in the face of setbacks. Reviewer Rating: 5" --Children's Literature, "A fast-paced, quirky caper with an authentic middle-grade voice."--Alan Gratz, New York Times bestselling author

Synopsis
Twelve-year-old Enly Wu Lewis needs to go to band camp this summer. It'll help him follow in the footsteps of his dad, a musician who died when Enly was too young to even remember him. Enly isn't sure if he has his dad's talent, but he wants to find out. There's just one hitch: The camp is too expensive, and Enly's mom is saving every penny for his older brother's 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, it's harder than Enly expected to make serious money busking. When someone drops a winning scratch-off lottery ticket into his tip box, Enly thinks it's the answer to all his problems. But he'll 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.
