Because of Winn Dixie

I have got to see this movie Because of Winn Dixie. I read this book to my classes for the past two years and they loved it! It will make you cry and it will make you laugh. It takes place in the south (I believe a more southern part of Florida - southern meaning more like the rest of the south and not like the metro areas) and the main character, Opal, is being raised by her father, "the preacher."

For my northern friends, Winn Dixie is a grocery store chain in the southeast (but this is not a story about a grocery store:)
