Poppy learned she doesn't have to be afraid because sh discoverd mr. Ocax might not be afraid. Also Poppy had knowledge to go out and to go to new house and she believes that she can find out what's at new house and tell her family what is hiding at new house too.

The discoveries that poppy knows is that she learned alot from ereth she learned that porky pines don't eat mice and Mr.Ocax and Mr.Ocax is afraid of ereth and so that gives her the power to be brave and stand up to Mr.Ocax.

The discoveries that Poppy made at New House was an owl twice the size of Mr. Ocax. Soon after that she met an orange cat named George. She asked him " who is that owl?" George replied saying oh he's just a fake to keep the other owls away from the chicken. She said " knowledge is power" because she's talking about Mr. Ocax. She knew he was afraid and he was not the real leader of Dimwood.

Poppy had a discovery. The discovery poppy had learned is that the owl that Mr. Lax and poppy was afraid of was a fake owl. Plus only poppy and the cat George know about it.( out of the animals in the story.) poppy has power from her knowledge because poppy knows that Mr.ocax is afraid of that FAKE owl. So I think that poppy is or should get the owl off the barn and take it to Ereth and ask him to help her get back at Mr.ocax. But before she goes back poppy has to get the salt lick. :):)!!

What poppy has discovered at new house is.
Poppy actually found out about the owl at new house was a fake owl.
The reson it is fake is because some owl (I think it's Mr.Ocax)came to new house to take some of there chickens and that's when they put it up.
Knowledge can be power because.When you know something like for example poppy knows that she is safe because Mr.Ocax is afraid of the fake owl.

Poppy found out that the owl on top of the house is fake and in the book the cat(George)said that there was an owl(i think he is Mr.Ocax)and he came and took a chicken ever sense then the people who live there put a fake owl on there house and now that owl that went there,he never went back.
The saying "knowledge is power" I think what Poppy means by that is, she is safe and to keep on going and don't give up.

What poppy found out was that when she went to new house she had thought that Mr.Ocax was there watching her on top of the barn.so then there was a cat that was sleeping and poppy went over there to ask if that was a real owl on top of the barn.But the cat said that it was a fake one so then it would keep the pescey owl away from the chickens.How the knowledge is power is that now she knows what Mr.Ocax is afraid of now.Thats how knowledge is power.

1:Poppy discovers that an owl is living at new house.When Poppy found out that she has knowledge over mr.Ocax because he is afraid of the fake owl.

2:Poppy can use this by her and her family can move there and there is plenty of food for the family and mr.Ocax can't control Poppy and her family any more then they can have a safe life with her family.

I think she discovers that Mr.ocax is scared of the owl at know house.That owl is twice as big as mr.ocax.she feels like she does not have to feel scared of mr.ocax.Know her family can move to know house.know she feels more like she does not have to be scared of the owl!

One of poppys discoveries is what she found out at new house that mr.Ocax didn't tell lungwort or poppy that there was a fake owl and Salt lick at new house.how knowledge is power is if you can do something that you really don't want to do like poppy she really didn't want to go to new house but she was wondering was there so she could tell lungwort and sweet cicley so they would believe her about what mr.ocax was hiding there.
