The book goes to an older woman who lives in a fancy apartment building with a doorman and security guard. The woman doesn’t know what’s being delivered, which confuses Jeremy and Lizzy. The book is a copy of Winnie-the-Pooh, signed by A.A. Milne to the woman and her childhood best friend. Long ago, the woman sold the book to pay for a dress and lied to her friend about it, which ended their friendship. She is grateful to have the book back and gives Jeremy a letter that came from inside it, telling him to read it later. Then she shows the kids out, with Lizzy stating that “Mr. Oswald has a lot of explaining to do tomorrow” (124).

At home, Jeremy reads the letter and looks up the woman’s friend online, finding that she has passed away. Before she died, she started a foundation in honor of a childhood friend who ignited her love of reading, whom Jeremy realizes is the woman they visited today. He goes to bed thinking about how every choice leads to consequences and that “sometimes the Internet tells you more than you want to know” (131).

The next morning, Lizzy is late getting to the limo because she poked her eye applying makeup.
