Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo

2001 Newbery Honor

At the beginning of the book Opal finds a dog in the Winn-Dixie food store so she names him Winn-Dixie. She brings him home and asks her father if she can keep him and he says yes. She, Opal, starts to work for a man named Otis. She also meets a person named Gloria Dump. Mrs. Dump and Opal decide to throw a party. But during the party Winn-Dixie gets lost and they go and look for him. But it ends up where he didn't leave at all.

It was a good book but towards the end at the party it got a bit worse.

3 stars - It was a good book.
