Winn-Dixie 4-5

Opal and the preacher sat down on the couch; he told Opal ten things about her mama. He said she didn't know how to cook, but she could "plant a tire in the ground and grow a car!" He also said she could run real fast and she would sit and listen to stories all day long when. When he was finished telling her about her mama she was happy but she was missing her.

Opal and the preacher went to church and they brought Winn-Dixie with them. There was a mouse at the church staying there eating the left over crumbs. Winn-Dixie chased the mouse and caught him, and then he took it to the preacher and the preacher threw it out the door. Opal prayed for her mama and the mouse. She prayed the mouse would not get hurt and Opal also prayed for her mama to know she got Winn-Dixie for a dog.
