Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Marcus has changed schools three times, and he's learned the safest move is to sit alone. When a nervous new kid slides into the seat next to him on the bus, Marcus has a choice: keep doing what's always kept him safe, or take a chance on something real. **The Marble** follows one boy's slow, believable journey from guarded to genuinely connected - through a science project gone sideways, a costume built out of cardboard and courage, and two moments where Marcus has to decide whether to say something when nobody else will. Grounded in real, peer-reviewed research on friendship, courage, and childhood development (Piaget, Vygotsky, Bandura, and more - explained afterward in plain language any 11-year-old can follow), this is the first book in a series built to help boys navigate friendship, self-esteem, and communication in a world that doesn't always make that easy. *Includes "The Science Behind This Story" - a full explanation of the psychology in the book, written for young readers, plus a source list for parents and educators.
