The Secret About Secrets

Summary
D.W. discovers that getting a secret is a lot easier than keeping one.

Plot
D.W. is annoyed that everyone has a secret except her. She soon learns that James split his pants and she says to Emily that she has a secret, but she can't tell anyone. Emily complains that she is D.W's best friend. D.W. is about to tell her, but then she sees James and so she says to Emily that she'll tell her tomorrow. That night though, D.W. has a bad dream that the secret spreads around the pre-school and James is upset. The next morning, she says to mom that she feels sick and so Grandma Thora comes round to teach D.W. how to get rid of secrets. D.W. shouts it into a shell and throws it as far as she can into the sea. The next day at pre-school, Emily asks D.W. what her secret is and D.W replies: "I know how to keep a secret". She tells Emily about throwing a shell into the sea.
