Secret 11 - Marvin Redpost: Kidnapped at Birth? (book)

[personal profile] transcriptanon 2013-12-28 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Picture is the cover of the book "Marvin Redpost: Kidnapped at Birth?" by Louis Sachar. It shows the painting of a red-headed boy with pale skin wearing a white-collared blue sweatshirt? and a huge purple, bejeweled crown while standing on a bedroom of someone who has many books and is very into football. He is looking at his crown kind of nervously or displeased.]

When I read this as a kid, I was annoyed by the way he "gave up" just because he didn't have an accent. Even then, I knew accents were nurture, not nature.

I've realized by now that it was just a subconscious excuse to go back to the family that he knew and loved. So that isn't the secret. The secret is that I still wish he would have stayed for the last test and found out for sure.

And because we don't know, a part of me still thinks he really was the prince.
