Review: I liked this book because it has interesting characters and it has a dog that is funny and the preacher that goes to church and Opal the owner of the dog. My favorite part of the story was when the animals were out of there cages. I also liked when Opal first met Winn-Dixie the dog smelled. And I felt sorry for Opal cause her mom dranked beer . I also liked the book cause Winn- Dixie ran back and fourth in the room.

Summary: great read aloud
Review: A gentle story of a lonely girl, India Opal Buloni and her father, a preoccupied Southern Baptist preacher, both of whom are still aching from the abandonment of their wife and mother, a woman suffering from alcoholism, compounded by her hatred of being a preacher's wife, as it made her feel "like a bug under a microscope." Enter Winn-Dixie, a bedraggled mutt India Opal rescues from the Winn-Dixie grocery store, thus his name, as it was the first name India Opal could think of when trying to convince the store manager he indeed belonged to her. Despite Winn-Dixie's homely appearance, he has the charm, not to mention the ability to smile, only a dog can have and he, along with a jar of pickles and Littmus Lozenges, is the catalyst for helping an eclectic group of people find friendship in a small southern town.My only complaint is a small one. While I understand the story is driven by dialect, I do wish authors would make every attempt to use proper grammar whenever possible. I don't think using "good" and "well" correctly would have detracted from the story. That aside, this book is a must read for anyone longing for a story full of charm and hope with some good life lessons learned along the way.

Review: What a wonderful book! I must confess that I'm a dog lover and the author's descriptions of Winn Dixie are perfect. At times, I felt as though I was inside the story. I read the book to my students, four different classes, and they all loved it. Bravo!
