About This Book
Because of Winn-Dixie, a big, ugly, happy dog, 10-year-old Opal learns 10 things
about her long-gone mother from her preacher father. Because of Winn-Dixie, Opal
makes new friends among the somewhat unusual residents of her new hometown,
Naomi, Florida. Because of Winn-Dixie, Opal begins to find her place in the
world and let go of some of the sadness left by her mother's abandonment seven
years earlier.
With her newly adopted, goofy pooch at her side, Opal explores her bittersweet
world and learns to listen to other people's lives. This warm and winning book
hosts an unforgettable cast of characters, including a librarian who fought off
a bear with a copy of War and Peace, an ex-con pet-store clerk who plays sweet
music to his animal charges, and the neighborhood "witch," a nearly blind woman
who sees with her heart. Part Frankie (The Member of the Wedding), part Scout
(To Kill a Mockingbird), Opal brings her own unique and wonderful voice to a
story of friendship, loneliness, and acceptance. Opal's down-home charm and
dead-on honesty will earn her friends and fans far beyond the confines of Naomi,
Florida. (Ages 9 and older) --Emilie Coulter
