The boy stared at the gorilla in the zoo cage, and the gorilla stared back. “I’ll call you Marvin. I’m Thomas,” the boy said. Thomas smiled, and Marvin smiled back. Thomas put his hand to the glass enclosing the cage, and Marvin lifted his hand to meet the boy’s. Thomas put his hands in his ears and stuck out his tongue, trying for some humor, and remarkably, Marvin did the same. Thomas couldn’t stop giggling, and his mom said, “Better grab the camera. Time for a photo with the new family member.”
