Publisher's Synopsis
Changing schools is never easy, but Charles is having an especially tough time. He left behind his friends in West Virginia when his family moved to Ohio. He doesn't know how to play baseball. He's small for his age. And the school bullies are picking on him. But, then he finds a music store like none other-one with mysterious helpers who introduce him to the banjo, its history, and its many playing styles. He learns about the instrument and, in the process, discovers a bit about himself and life.
