Greg's father comes to Sydney. He takes Greg out for coffee and tells him that he has been offered a job in Sydney and that he would be moving. He asks Greg if he wants to move with him. This is a really big decision in Gregory's life. He decides to stay in Perth. "I'd suddenly got a whole lot older in the last hour."
Greg loses Mimi when they go to the Blue Mountains. She gets stuck up a cliff and he manages to get her down safely even though both of their lives were in danger. He realises how much he really does love Mimi and it shows that he has courage. It would make him more confident in his decisions and actions, after getting Mimi down safely.
They go to the zoo for an outing. Oma is talking to Greg. They are talking about his problems and how he doesn't want to go back to Perth. Oma tells Greg not to get upset over it. "There's never a problem comes along that doesn't bring a gift with it." Page 100. This is a very wise quote about change because it shows that while at the time change may seem scary, there's usually something good that comes out of it at the end.
