On Tuesday, June 17th at 12:30 – 1:30 p.m., the Homeschool Book Club for 8 – 10 year olds will be discussing Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo.
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.
Homeschool students are welcome to sign up with Mrs. Fig. by emailing her at jfigurelli@killingworthlibrary.org. Copies of this book are available at the circulation desk.
