Marvin is put in a position of responsibility, much to the envy of his friends but it is the way he handles the unnerving situation that crops up along the way. |
Synopsis: |
While Mrs North, Marvin's teacher, is on holiday she has asked him to look after Waldo - her dog. Suddenly Marvin has become the luckiest boy in school. He'll get to sniff about Mrs North's house, look in her wardrobe, check out her bathroom and rummage in her fridge well that's what Stuart and Nick, his best friends, would like to do. But Marvin takes things a little more seriously. Afterall, he gets paid $3 a day while Mrs North's away and he gets a bonus on top of that if everything goes smoothly. What could possibly go wrong? Just how long can Marvin hold on to his luck. Louis Sachar tells this tale with a refreshing and bold frankness and again the characters are vividly portrayed in this the fourth of the series. |
