Summary: The summer Opal and her father, the preacher, move to Naomi, Florida, Opal goes into the Winn-Dixie supermarket -- and comes out with a dog. With the help of her new pal, whom she names Winn-Dixie, Opal makes a variety of new, interesting friends and spends the summer collecting stories about them and thinking about her absent mother. But because of Winn-Dixie, or perhaps because she has grown, Opal learns to let go, just a little, and that friendship -- and forgiveness -- can sneak up on you like a sudden summer storm.

A girl named Opal finds this dog and she names him Winn Dixie. Winn Dixie helps her make friends. Opal found Winn Dixie in a grocery store. I think anyone will like this book.

I liked this book because it's about a dog and I love dogs. They are the cutest little things on earth. If you love dogs just like me you should read it. It's an excellent book.

I liked this book because I think it's cool how one dog can make so many friends for one girl. It proves if you take care of your pet it can turn a raggedey old dog into a nice clean dog.
