One summer's, day, ten-year-old India Opal Buloni goes down to the local supermarket for some groceries - and comes home with a dog. Winn-Dixiee is no ordinary dog. Big, skinny and smelly he may be, but he also has the most winning smile. It's because of Winn-Dixie that Opal gets to know some very surprising people and starts to make new friends. It's because of Winn-Dixie that she finally dares to ask her father about her mother, who left when Opal was three. In fact, just about everything that happens that summer is because of Winn-Dixie. Read about the exploits of this most unusual dog and a host of quirky characters in this enchanting tale.
"Take one disarmingly engaging protagonist and put her in the company of a tenderly rendered canine and you've got yourself a recipe for the best kind of down-home literary treat. Kate DiCamillo's voice in Because of Winn-Dixie should carry from the steamy, sultry pockets of Florida clear across the miles to enchant young readers everywhere." Karen Hesse, author of the Newbery-award winner Out of the Dust"
