__**The Best Kept Secret**__ __**Chapter Summary**__ Cecilia and Jo were making their way to the carosel. Jo thought the carosel looked amazing and she wanted a go. Cecilia didn't want to go on because she thought she was too old for it. Shark Murphy came pushing through the croud. He looked at the sign and it said, "Riders: walk in" He pushed the curtain aside and went in. Cecilia was shocked as they tried pushing the curtain aside and failed. Jo looked at the sign. Mr Angelo came through and looked very sad. He looked at the sign. He went through the curtains and cecilia was shocked again. Joe pushed the curtain aside and walked in. Cecilia had got in too as her hand was held on Jo's hand very tightly. She looked very angry.

__** My prediction **__ I think cecilia didn't get in through the curtain because she didn't look at the sign. Jo, the shark and Mr Angelo were able to get in because they looked at the sign.

__** The best kept Secret **__ __** Chapter Summary Chapter 8: Mr. Angelo Finds out **__ Jo sees many things that have stayed the same in the future but she sees some things that have changed. One thing that has changed is that Mr. Angelo is happy and he was not happy before. But Jo was confused because she no longer saw Mr. Angelo in his shop which meant he sold it, and he was still happy and smiling. In Jo's time, he said he did not want to sell the shop but he did and he still looked happy. Then she realised he was smiling because he was married to a woman named Babara. Jo could tell they loved each other by the way they looked at each other in the eyes. Then she saw a little girl with Babara and Jo thought that must be their child.

__** The Best Kept Secret Chapter Summary Chapter 10: Stowaway **__ The old man continuously checked his pocket to see if the object he stole was still there as he walked towards the carousel. The man controling the carousel asked if he had everything and the old man checked his pocket again. Yes he said. Jo was sitting on her horse watching. And then she heard a loud CRASH! It was those bullies! Jo thought. They broke Mr Breans shop window! Mr Brean stepped out of his shop and Jo could tell he was not happy. He thought the little boy did it and Mr Brean started to chase him. Run! thought Jo to herself. Jo couldn't help saving the little boy. She swooped him up onto her horse. That was when the carousel started to move. Then Jo realised what she had done. In Mr Breans eyes the boy just dissapeared and he kept walking. But he expected the boy to turn up again. The little boy started to cry. Jo had to hope for the best....

__** Chapter 12: Waiting **__** __Chapter Summary__ ** Davy didn't know what was going on and he was scared. Mr Angelo was keen to get back to their usual time because he had a good reason to. The man near Mr. Angelo asked if he had any luck with what was happening in the future. The man said that he went and stayed in the news agency and looked at the results for the horse races. He said that he would get the results for the horse racing, go back in time, and then bet the results. He would become a millonaire! Mr Angelo didn't know if that was allowed. The man didn't seem like he even cared if you were allowed to do it.

__** Chapter 14: ''Won't I see you anymore?" Chapter Summary **__ Davy woke up from his snooze on the carousel. It was time to get off. Mrs D said that they didn't stop at the exact time of Davy's. Davy burst into tears. Davy didn't want to go back to his home himself so Jo was told that she had to go with Davy to take him.Jo took him there and he was really happy to see his mum. "Won't I ever see you again?" Davy asked. "I can't. I live to far away." Jo answered. Davy didn't look happy. He didn't want Jo to leave but she had to before the whistle blew. Jo said good bye as the whistle went. She ran back to the carousel.

Prediction I think that Davy is Jo's brother because in the future Davy's dog is Podge which is Jo's dog in the past.

__** My Questions **__ __** Q: **__ Why did Davy want Jo to go with him back to his house? __** A: **__ Because Davy's mother said he was not old enough to cross roads which he needed to do when he was going back to his house.

**__Q:__** Why is Jo scared to take Davy back to his house? **__A:__** Because when she leaves the carousel and when the whistle blows, she has to rush back to the carousel and if she dosen't make it then she will be stuck in the future!

Q: Why does Davy have to rush to get home? A: Because if they don't rush then his family will find him in the period of time that they're in and the Davy with Jo will have no where to go.

**__New year around the world__** Chapter 3: The Chinese new year This chapter starts with Lydia Wu explaining that the chinese new year is celebrated twice in the year. She alsoays that one tradition in the chinese new year is that children get 'hong bao pockets' which are little pockets of money. If you get an even amount of money, then that means good luck! But if you get an odd amount of money you get bad luck! Lydia tells us that there is a chinese zodiac which tells you what animal you are, you can find out with the year you were born in. She also tells us that most Chinese Australian families have big reunion dinners on new years eve to get together with the people they haven't seen in a long time. On new year's day there are many parades with big lion and dragons walk along the parade with around 50 people in them. Chinese people celebrate new years day in a very special way.
