Dr Amos Grady, owner of the telescope and now a prominent astronomer working at the Museum of Natural History, helps Jeremy to understand that all the known laws of physics make time travel to the future an impossibility. Jeremy is constantly reading books about time travel, hoping to go back in time and prevent his father's accident. They learn about the value of friendship, the freedom that comes with intentional simplicity - as a student of it, I appreciated the subtle, unnamed aspects of Buddhism that Mass weaves into her story, and the cosmic implications of time travel. These make up some of the most poignant, probing, profound conversations of the book as the two talk with the people, now well into old age. They return a sixty year old autographed copy of Winnie-the-Pooh, a Tiffany lamp and an old brass telescope, along with the original letters they wrote for Ozzy. Then he would take a picture of them with the item. When Ozzy ran the shop he had his underaged customers fill out a form explaining why they were pawning the particular item and what they intended to use the money for. These turn out to be items that were pawned decades ago, when Mr Oswald's grandfather, Ozzy Oswald, ran the shop, and make up my favorite part of the book. Mr Oswald is in the process of moving and needs the children to deliver a few things for him. They are picked up in a limousine and driven to work - at Mr Oswald's house - by James, the tight-lipped but friendly chauffeur. However, this job turns out not to be as bad as the two expected. The story really takes off when, caught trespassing in the empty offices of the lawyer, Jeremy and Lizzy are assigned community service the requires them to work for the pawn broker, Mr Oswald.
