"Because of Winn-Dixie" by Kate DiCamillo, a 2001 Newbery Honor book, tells a heartwarming story about love, friendship and tolerance. Main characters of the realistic fiction book are Opal Buloni, a 10-year-old girl, and Winn-Dixie, the dog she has found in the town grocery store. Opal has just moved to Naomi, Florida with her preacher father. Her mother left them seven years ago. Because of Winn-Dixie, Opal makes new friends. Among them are Gloria Dump, a kind old lady called a witch by children, Miss Franny Block, a librarian who loves to tell stories, and Otis, a pet shop worker who plays music to animals. These quirky characters are part of the charm of the chapter book. "Because of Winn-Dixie" appeals to children in 4th grade through 7th grade.

Excellent book for ANY 3rd or 4th grader!Review created: 08/01/07(updated 08/01/07)

) Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo is more often than not LOVED by both boys and girls. As an educator, I know that when a child (as so adults) loves a book, he/she is going to be more inclined to read more often. Most children will gravitate towards certain authors and opt to choose books written by their favorite authors. My son read this last year in the third grade and LOVES this author. Another great story by Kate DiCamillo is "The Tales of Desperado". It is no shock that Because of Winn-Dixie is a Newberry Medal book! An adorable story about the friendship between a girl and a dog- A TRUE WINNER- you cannot go wrong!

Great Family Read!
) Our town library picks a book each year for the whole town to read and passes out a number of free copies but asks each person to conntiue passing it along when they are done. Last year, they picked this book. I was hesitant to read it as it wasn't the usual style I liked. But, after reading the first 2 chapters, I fell in love with it. Cute. Funny. Better than I expected. Everyone should have a dog like Winn-Dixie!
