Inhalt:

A family-oriented science fiction tale featuring magical realism about the contrast between an eight-year-old boy and his grandmother. Austin is always watching the clock, wishing that time would tick by faster so that he can play video games. But unfortunately, he must first go to school, complete his homework and help around the house. Every day feels like forever. To make things worse, Grandma Ivy moves so slowly. Why can't she just hurry up? One night, Grandma Ivy asks Austin to fetch a box from the attic. Inside he finds a golden pocket watch that allows him to time travel. With the hands of time literally in his pocket, Austin now has the power to choose which moments to skip and which to enjoy. What starts as fun soon becomes a dangerous balance. Will Austin learn to enjoy the small moments, before it's too late? This delightful tale captures a child's stretched perception of life and invites its young reader to consider that growing up doesn't simply mean getting older: it's by facing challenges and learning from them that you become a better person. With a recognizable family setting and full of funny moments, this charming story balances its heart with humor, making it a memorable read for children and adults alike.
