Tomorrow, When the war began
By John Marsden
Prediction Based on Book cover
The book cover indicates that the book is about war and some sort of invasion due to the planes flying in formation at the top of the cover.
It also tells us that most of the book is set around a show ground or carnival, and the camouflage uniform shows that the army gets involved.

Lee was always one of the first people to put his hand up to help the team and is very sneaky as they said he was one of the only ones that hadn't been seen or nearly caught. He also put up with being shot in the leg by one of the enemy soliders. As he says "If we do this, if we succeed, I'll be able to feel pride again" said

Diary Entry - Corries Dad
Dear Dairy,
It was commemoration day, I was at the showground with my wife. I swear everyone was at the show that day. Except my dear Corrie I worry about her going on that road
trip with all those boys, but I trust her she is my heart and soul.
We heard some planes fly over and knew we were in for a show, the army by the look of it. I always love the flyovers and I can name every plane in the ARMY I worked on the runway and all day I would marvel at them, I would build models of them and hang them over Corries bed when she was still a baby.
And thats how i knew that these were not ARMY planes they were some other type of plane that I had never seen. Thats when it hit me something strange was happening. I ran to the carnival office and sent through a message to home i know it sounds stupid and it was probably just nothing and when i got home i would delete it.
Thats when the trucks started coming in people with guns storming in shouting at us, babies were crying and people were screaming, they put up a cage in the middle of the grounds it looked like a fight cage. They started yelling at us in another lanaguage that none of us understood. I was scared I found my wife straight away and see had the same idea of what's going on as i did.
