"It's going to be one of those days," Marek thought to himself as he looked up at the board labeled DEPARTURES. His flight was delayed. He thought back to how the day had begun. When he woke up, the sun had been shining brightly and robins that had built a nest outside his window were chirping loudly. He'd jumped out of bed, anxious to start the first day of his vacation. But he'd tripped over the clothes he'd carelessly dropped on the floor the night before and banged his knee on the closet door."

The author uses flashback to have Marek...

• remember when he and his mother moved into the house.

• recall that his father had been a champion swimmer.

• recall when he tripped over his clothes that morning.

• remember where he had hidden his old suitcase.
