Pretend you are a significant object from the story. You can observe,think and talk. What is the object?

The purpose of this question is not clear.  Are there criteria for what object?  What is the point of the objects?

I assume that the point of it is to pick an object that helps you understand the story, but you don't say if that's so.  I'll answer based on that.  Some ideas:

• Gloria Dump's tree.  It sees Gloria and presumably knows her secrets. It sees Opal and Gloria build a relationship.  It sees the party where Opal and all her acquaintences get to understand one another better.


• Otis's guitar.  It gets to see what things Otis can do musically and it presumably understands Otis and some of the issues he has.


• The vegetables at the Winn-Dixie.  They are there for the beginning of the Opal-Winn-Dixie relationship.

Those are some objects I can imagine using, but without more information about your needs, I can't give you a better answer...
