The Adventures of Enu is a compelling fable featuring a mystical, if not magical creature whose presence favorably impacted a young boy forced to find a new identity. Leaving behind the comfort and contentment of his beach community when his family uprooted to unfamiliar surroundings, Author Sebastian Slovin created a masterful myth with a poignant message as he portrayed the trials and tribulations of the boy's adjustment to his new world. In his quest for a sense of belonging, the boy - determined to seek his destiny - ventured into the local park, drawn by the towering trees, inviting pathways and lush foliage. It was here in the beauty and presence of nature, where the inquisitive boy was touched - literally on the shoulder - by Enu, a legend created by the author's father, whose memory the book honors. The revered creature is a combination of heart, humanity, spirit and soul who communicates with all kingdoms, from the mightiest of mammals to the tiniest of insects. Inseparable during their encounter, Enu's wisdom and inspiring perspective had a profound influence on renewing the boy's confidence and resolve as he found peace and joy in his new life.
