Because of Winn-Dixie
by Katie DiCamillo
Ages 10+
A classic book and Newberry Winner that is great. I had heard some many things about this book. I decided to read it myself and I fell in love with it. Opal moved to Florida with her father, the preacher. She finds a dog at the grocery store and promptly names it after the store, Winn-Dixie. Opal is a head strong girl trying to fit in with her new environment and makes friends with the Librarian, the crazy blind neighbor, and the mysterious ex-con pet store owner. Opal learns exciting stories about her new friends and learns how to forgive her mother and others.
