Unless you're the world's most patient person, you've most likely gotten frustrated while trying to explain yourself or share exactly what you're thinking. Or sometimes you're trying to describe something to a person, and they're not understanding and you can't think of a better way to speak. This difficulty is especially prevalent for Oskar, who has difficulty expressing himself and therefore connecting to others. My invention for him is a way transfer exactly what he's thinking to someone else's brain. That way, even if he cannot say exactly what he means, people will be able to understand. The transfer device would look like a tv remote and be about as small as a first-edition Nokia cell phone. Whenever Oskar is thinking something or has something he's imagining but no way to describe it, he could simply type in the person who he wants his thought to go to and hit send. The transferrer would automatically connect to Oskar's head to pick out the idea then in a second be transported to the designated person.
This invention could hopefully make lighter Oskar's heavy boots by enabling him to better connect with others. It would help him in his expedition to find the key's owner by saving him a lot of explanation time. Thinking something takes a lot less time then actually saying it all. A time when the 'thought transfer remote' would be useful is on page 88, when Aaron black slams the door in his face without letting Oskar finish explaining. It would also be beneficial in his appointments with Dr. Fein (page 201).
