Marv
by Marilyn SachsMarv Green has a garden where no flowers grow. Lots of other things grow there though—a set of revolving doors that lead nowhere, a roofless dog palace without a dog, an igloo made of bricks—to name just a few. Marv’s problem is that he likes to build. And when he isn’t building, he’s dreaming about building. His teachers consider him hopelessly stupid, and his brilliant, older sister, Frances, whom he admires more than anybody else in the world, calls him a “failure.” “Everything you do is a useless, ugly mess,” says Frances. “Can’t you make something that will benefit somebody?” And Marv tries. Over and over again Marv tries—and fails. Exasperating, hopeless, funny and endearing, here is Marv—part dreamer, part nuisance, part fool, and perhaps, although you may be the only one who thinks so, part genius.

But as conflict brews near Wakanda, T'Challa's father makes a startling announcement: he's sending T'Challa and M'Baku to school in America.
