YELLOW QUESTION:  Opal tells Winn-Dixie that they are a lot alike. In what ways are Opal and Winn-Dixie alike? In what ways are they different?

Opal compares her father, the preacher, to a “turtle hiding inside its shell, in there thinking about things and not ever sticking his head out into the world” (pp. 16–17). Do you know anybody like that? Describe him or her.

Write one "I wonder" statement you have about your book.  After you have written your statement, predict when you think you will find the answer to your wondering.  Here is an example from the book Dragon in the Sock Drawer:

"I wonder if Jesse and Daisy will get to keep Emmy without getting caught."

I predict this will happen in the middle of the book (the part when they may get caught) and the end the book will say if they are able to keep her or not.
