Some People Are Never Loved

Some people are never loved. For example, Winn-Dixie was a stray so he may have never been loved. And other than the preacher Opal may have never been loved. Some homeless people may have never been loved or want to be talked to like a stray. In the story Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo Opal and Winn-Dixie help each other live a better life.

Winn-Dixie changed Opals life. For instance, Winn-Dixie helped Opal find friends by smiling and acting good. Also, she was all filled up by her friends that Winn-Dixie helped make. And in the end Opal was happy because she knew about her mom and now she had Win-Dixie. I think the author wrote this because Winn-Dixie acts like a mom to her. For instance, When Opal found Winn-Dixie it was kind of like when she found her mom in her thoughts because they were both huge parts of her life. Winn-Dixie was like a mom to her because he comforted her and played with her like a mom.

Opal changed Winn-Dixie’s life. First off, she gave him food, water and love. Another thing, she gave him a bath and brushed his hair and let his fur grow out so he didn’t have bald spots. Again, she would do anything for him, she even worked all day for him to get the collar both Opal and Winn-Dixie loved.

I think Opal Winn-Dixie and Littmus are alike. Litmus is Mrs. Franny Block’s grandpa. He had a lot of familuy and then they all died in the civil war except for him. After that he made a candy company called Littmus Lozenge and it was a sweet and sour candy like there are sweet times in life and sour times in life. Littmus, Winn-Dixie and Opal are alike because they all started out with family and then they end up with one or none. Also, Opals mom left her, Winn-Dixie was a stray and all of Litmus’s family died in the war. I think the author put this in because Winn-Dixie and Opal both had a sweet and sour life. Opals life is sweet because she finds Winn-Dixie and she finds friends. Her life is sour because her mom leaves her and she has to move a lot. Winn-Dixie has a sweet life because he finds Opal. He has for some time. Sour life because he was a stray dog.

Don’t judge someone by how they look. For example, when you are the new kid you are usually judged by how you look or act. The Dubery boys judged Opal by how she acts. They thought she was gullible enough to believe that Gloria Dump was a witch. Have you ever been treated by how you look or act? Why
