Summary: Friendships
Review: I found this to be a comforting book that my ten year old daughter enjoyed. We recently moved to a new area and at first she was lonely but then experienced the happiness of making new friends. As comforting as this book was, right after it, she read an exciting, fast paced book called "The Wreck of the Ethie" It was quite a contrast as it is based on a true story of a Newfoundland dog saving people in a shipwreck. "Winn Dixie" is slow moving, but poignant..."Wreck of the Ethie" is exciting & a real page turner. She loved them both, but in different ways.

Summary: WHY???
Review: Because of Winn Dixie was required summer reading for my son going into Fourth grade. I was curious about the book so I also read it. WHY??? I don't know why of all the wonderful books out there this one was chosen. The story is centered around a little girl who is having trouble understanding why her mother left her. She moves to a new town and it talks of the people she meets. A girl who's brother drowned recently, a prisoner, etc. I found the whole thing rather depressing. And the way it is written runs on and on like my four year old daughter who talks just to hear herself talk. The only thing that actually happened in the book was the dog disappered... but was quickly found. It very much lacked any action or excitement. Also a note to parents there are a couple of curse words in the story... which seemed unnecessary.

Summary: A funny book about a girl and her famous dog
Review: Opal finds a troublesome dog in the Winn-Dixie grocery store and decides to take him home. He helps make her tons of friends as she is new in town. He even brings her closer to her father. There are funny parts and funny characters like a young girl who has to have a themed party, and chooses the color pink nad tries to get Opal to have a dog themed party. I enjoyed it. It's pretty short, but good for all of the pages.

Summary: Lyrical and Poignant
Review: Because of Winn-Dixie is just a beautiful little novel. It is Opal's innocent look at real life. It's much like Scout's innocent look at a fallen world in To Kill a Mockingbird, and it hits notes just as lyrical and poignant.The cast of characters has all been touched by life in some way. Opal and her father have been hurt by divorce. Others have been hurt by death, prejudice, loneliness...Opal says, "Sometimes I feel at if the whole world is lonely." But Opal and her dog Winn-Dixie try to bring these real people together to begin to heal. The result of the book is a truly fascinating story held together by a wonderful character. The book is truly touching, humorous, and uplifting. Because of Winn-Dixie is a book for anyone touched by life.

Summary: Really liked this one
Review: I really liked this book. So many books just get or start out boring, but this one is a better one. I love Winn Dixie (the dog) and I liked reading about this girl making these unusual friends in her new home, and I especially likd the part where her dad talks to her. Reader who like this book will probably also like Camp of the Angel by Aileen Arrington and the bear's house.

Review: The story,Because of Winn Dixie was a book that tought the readers a vauluble lesson on how a certian animal,A dog in this case how the canine helps a girl make more friends. This particular book was one of my all time favorites because of the story plot,how alaborate the auothor is about this certian settings,and what is happening in the text. I give Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate Dicamillo a four star because of the particular time period, while i was reading thois book I wast certient about the time period. The questions that came through my mind was, Is this in the 1960's or in the 1990's. That was the only difficulty i had with this book. In closing,this was a exellent wriiten book.Thank you.

Review: This book really was not a book, it is a paperback. I give this book three stars. It was not a challenging book <>. The book ... The book is what I call a younger brother book.
