Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Besides oranges, tomatoes, and green peppers, what item does Winn-Dixie knock off the produce display?

Answer: Onions

Winn-Dixie was running around the grocery store, knocking things off the displays. He would have gone to the pound, but Opal told the employees that he was her dog.

2. What is the name of the church that Opal's father preaches at?

Answer: Open Arms Baptist Church

Open Arms Baptist Church used to be a Pick It Quick store, so everyone had to bring lawn-chairs to sit in instead of pews.

3. The motto on the floor of the church says, "Quick, Pick It Quick."

Answer: False

When the church opened, the Preacher tried to paint over the red tiles that spelled out "Pick Pick Pick Quick Quick Quick," but it kept coming off, so he finally gave up.

4. When Miss Franny first saw Winn-Dixie at the window of her library, what did she think he was?

Answer: Bear

When Miss Franny was a girl, a bear came into her library and scared her so much that she panicked when she saw Winn-Dixie, thinking he was that bear again.

5. What book does Opal read to Gloria Dump?

Answer: Gone With the Wind

Gloria Dump was almost blind, so Opal read "Gone With the Wind" to her. The picnic at Twelve Oaks gave Opal the idea for the party that they had at Gloria's.

6. What flavors taste like they are in Littmus Lozenges?

Answer: Strawberry and root beer

The candy was good, but no one could quite place what flavors they tasted like. Strawberry, root beer, and sorrow was what Opal thought.

7. Why was Otis sent to jail?

Answer: Playing his guitar in public

Otis only wanted to share his music with everyone, but the law got mad when he wouldn't stop playing his guitar on the street.

8. Opal's original sandwich idea for the party at Gloria Dump's house was peanut butter.

Answer: False

Opal's first idea was egg salad sandwiches, but then she decided that since she didn't know how to make them, she should have peanut butter. Gloria talked her out of that, however, and taught Opal how to make egg salad.

9. Who went into Gloria Dump's bedroom to see who or what was sneezing?

Answer: Otis

Gloria asked Otis to go and see what it was because she thought it might be a thief.

10. What song does everyone sing at the end of the book?

Answer: It doesn't say

At the end they begin to sing, but it doesn't say what song, probably because Opal is not singing, she only listens.
