Following your Dreams and Determination submitted by zoe.dvh on June 20, 2015, 5:46pm This book really encourages following your dreams and having determination. This is a big factor of why I like this book.This is a great read, especially in summer, when you have more time to get an in-depth meaning of what you read. Eighth-Grader Apple Yengko has always wanted a guitar so she could play beatles music, but every time she asks her mother for one, she answers with a firm no. So she decides she wants to get a guitar from the music teacher at her school, and during their class trip to New Orleans, Louisiana, she will run off and play music on the streets for money. She will save up the money to buy a guitar of her own. But, after a she gets over a few roadblocks in the way of her dream, she realizes she needs a change in her plans.
