(T) Tween Snack n' Chat: Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo

Ages 9-12.  For June, Tween Snack n' Chat is discussing Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo. We will discuss the book, enjoy a snack and complete a fun book-related activity.  We have a limited number of free library copies. 

One summer’s day, ten-year-old India Opal Buloni goes down to the local supermarket for some groceries—and comes home with a dog. But Winn-Dixie is no ordinary dog. It’s because of Winn-Dixie that Opal begins to make friends. And it’s because of Winn-Dixie that she finally dares to ask her father about her mother, who left when Opal was three. In fact, as Opal admits, just about everything that happens that summer is because of Winn-Dixie.
