There seem to be two different styles that Irving uses for this book. The story is told from two different times: the first being the present, where the main character reflects on the past and the second is back when he and Owen were kids. When in present time there is no conversation. You are told everything and don't truly get to experience it. When in the past the story has lots of conversation. You actually feel like you are experiencing the things the kids go through.
50 pages. Owen is trying to be friends with the main character again. He gives the main character his baseball cards (he collects them) and the main character, with help from Dan, figures that he needs to give the cards back and give Owen something that is of value to him. He gives Owen his Armadillo. Owen gives the Armadillo back and then they are friends again. Owen now stays with Dan(his step dad) and his grandmothers. He goes between the house whenever he likes.
