Because of Winn-Dixie.

The more friends the better. In Because of Winn-Dixie, Opal has no friends in the beginning, but in the middle of the book she has many friends. One of Opal’s many friends Gloria Dump is old and another friend is almost 6. That means you can have friends of all ages. Because of Winn-Dixie Opal’s dog Opal has many friends.

Opal has made tons of friends most of them because of Winn-Dixie. One of Opal’s first friends Miss Franny the librarian. Opal became friends with her because Opal asked her to bring Winn-Dixie into the library to hear the story that Miss Franny was about to tell and she said yes and when Miss Franny got frightened Winn-Dixie comforted her. Winn-Dixie also had a Littmus Lozenge and it amazed Miss Franny that a dog would eat a candy. When Opal became friends with Otis who works at the pet shop. That happened because of Winn-Dixie. When Winn-Dixie wanted a collar from the pet shop Opal went in to buy it but she did not have enough money to buy it so she asked for a job to pay off for it so when Opal started working there, you’re not going to believe what happened next! Opal became friends with Otis. That happened because Winn-Dixie helped establish that friendship.

Opal’s friendship with Gloria Dump happened because of Winn-Dixie. Without Winn-Dixie Opal would have never met Gloria Dump. For example, when Winn-Dixie went into Gloria Dump’s garden and Opal went in to get him even though the Dewberry boys Stevie and Dunlap said “You better not go into the witch’s house.” In fact immediately after Opal went in she became good friends with Gloria Dump. Opal’s friendship with Gloria Dump was important. For instance, it made a difference because there was a party at Gloria Dump’s house and then Opal became good friends with one of the Dewberry boys which was Dunlap. Gloria Dump without the party and without Opal she probably would die alone because barely any people knew her. When Opal came in and became her friend that was probably Gloria’s first real friend.

With more friends you can achieve more. Opal has many friends that is the same with me. With friends you can become President or anything if you really try. Try to achieve what you want with friends, and then what you want might, just might happen.
