Strummin The Banjo Moon – by Joyce Keller Walsh
Nineteen year-old Juanna Mae DelRio Lottery wasabandoned by her husband and foreclosed out of her house inSouth Jersey. Left without any resources except for an oldBuick, $264, and her own grit, she and Dell—her five-year-old daughter—moved their belongings into the car and droveto a secluded spot deep in the pinewoods. Juanna planned tostay there until she saved enough travel money to go home toher mother in Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana. But she made amistake by applying for food stamps and now they have toleave right away because the Social Service is about toswoop down and take Dell into foster care . . . and if Juannahadn’t lied about her age, they might even take her, too. Sheshould have known better, for as her mother always says,“The road to hell is paved with government intentions.”Like Huckleberry Finn’s adventures on the river, Juanna’sadventures on the road thrust her into a world of oddballcharacters and precarious situations. Her humorous, moving,and sometimes tragic journey spans thirty years and twocontinents, and often tests her belief that everything thathappens has a purpose and a moral.Ultimately, Juanna not only survives her misfortunes, she conquers them.
