Because of Winn-Dixie BSY091

US$9.95-13.95

Because of Winn-Dixie, a big, ugly, happy dog, 10-year-old Opal learns 10 things about her long-gone mother from her preacher father. Because of Winn-Dixie, Opal makes new friends among the somewhat unusual residents of her new hometown, Naomi, Florida. Because of Winn-Dixie, Opal begins to find her place in the world and let go of some of the sadness left by her mother's abandonment seven years earlier. With her newly adopted, goofy pooch at her side, Opal explores her bittersweet world and learns to listen to other people's lives. This warm and winning book hosts an unforgettable cast of characters, including a librarian who fought off a bear with a copy of War and Peace, an ex-con pet-store clerk who plays sweet music to his animal charges, and the neighborhood "witch," a nearly blind woman who sees with her heart.

本书荣获2001年纽伯瑞儿童文学奖银奖,深受读者喜爱。这是一个发生在美国南方小镇的生活故事。女孩欧宝在新家附近的超级市场中认领了闯下大祸的傻狗温迪克。这只狗既不漂亮也不勇敢,灵性不高又害怕寂寞,但与众不同的是它会咧着嘴笑。欧宝因为有了这只会笑的狗,才逐渐克服了自己的心理障碍,开始试着去接触早已离家出走的妈妈,并开始在新的环境中结交朋友。从小生长在南方小镇的女孩欧宝和不苟言笑的父亲一同搬到了寒冷的北方。一个偶然的机会,欧宝从超市领回了一只闯祸的流浪狗,取名温迪克。这只狗虽然又丑又脏,但它有一个神奇的本领就是会对人咧嘴微笑。温迪克和欧宝每天都会去不同的地方,认识不同的人。想要一座图书馆作为礼物的老小姐芬妮,害羞却又能用美妙旋律去吸引小动物的奥蒂斯,性格古怪、被人们称作“巫婆”的格洛亚丽,以及阿曼达、“小不点儿”和“光头宝宝”等都成为了她们的好朋友。
