Litmus Lozenge

  In the book Because of Winn-Dixie Mrs. Franny who compares Litmus Lozenges to life.She says this since a Litmus Lozenge is a cant that is sweet and sad. Mrs. Franny takes what she knows about herself and Litmus. Litmus had nothing after the war not even his family. After the war he wants a candy so he makes one, the Litmus Lozenge. A candy that is sweet and sad like the war.

  I agree with this point of view. I say this since at one point at life something was sweet and at one point something was sad. Like when I met Aidan and had a great time. A sad part was when I lost my both my dog and my sister's dog.

Do you like Mrs. Franny's point of view

Winn-Dixie

  The preacher has changed a lot of the book. In the beginning of the book Opal said "I think of him as the preacher". So she thinks of him as a preacher not her father. She also wants "the preacher" to spend more time with her. Not rubbing his nose thinking his hardest like it says he does.


  In the end of the book the preacher becomes more caring for Opal. In the end when Winn-Dixie gets lost the preacher immediately runs and helps Opal find him. It says that the preacher walked "through downtown". He did that not only because he loves Winn-Dixie but since he saw how much Opal loves him. When Opal said he was probably run over he helped him through her fears.

Do you think the preacher changed? Why or why not?
