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.

Ferris
The masterful Kate DiCamillo has outdone herself with a hilarious and achingly real love story about a girl, a ghost, a grandmother and growing up. It’s the summer before fifth grade, and for Ferris Wilkey, it is a summer of sheer pandemonium. Her little sister, Pinky, has vowed to become an outlaw. Uncle Ted has left Aunt Shirley and, to Ferris’s mother’s chagrin, is holed up in the Wilkey basement to paint a history of the world. And Charisse, Ferris’s grandmother, has started seeing a ghost in the doorway to her room – which seems like an alarming omen given that she is feeling unwell. But the ghost is not there to usher Charisse to the Great Beyond. Rather, she has other plans – wild, impractical, illuminating plans. How can Ferris satisfy a spectre with Pinky terrorizing the town, Uncle Ted sending Ferris to spy on her aunt, and her father battling an invasion of raccoons? As Charisse likes to say, “Every good story is a love story,” and Kate DiCamillo has written one for the

Winn-dixie
En så förtjusande och rörande berättelse om en moderlös flicka och hennes hittehund måste bara vinna föräldrars hjärtan. Svenska Dagbladet "... en hjärteknipande historia om vad kärleken till ett djur kan betyda för ett barn och hennes möjligheter hitta nya vänner." Ingalill Mosander, Aftonbladet Opal är tio år och har precis flyttat till en ny stad. När hon går för att handla i mataffären Winn-Dixie, händer något märkligt. En stor, smutsig, herrelös hund springer omkring inne i affären och plötsligt hör Opal sig själv säga att den är hennes. Kom hit, Winn-Dixie! utropar hon, för det är det första namnet hon kommer att tänka på. Och till hennes stora förvåning lyssnar hunden. Från den dagen förändras Opals liv, för tillsammans med Winn-Dixie hittar hon nya vänner. Och får till och med sin pappa att berätta saker om hennes mamma, som lämnade dem när Opal var liten. Kate DiCamillo är en av våra mest älskade berättare. Winn-Dixie utkom första gången på svenska 2010, och kommer nu i ett efterlängtat nytryck. "Någon enstaka gång händer det att man fastnar i en bok redan från första meningen. Så är det med Kate DiCamillos debutbok ... Detta är ett efterlängtat nytryck. ... Det är en underbar bok, både humoristisk och vemodig, skriven på ett melodiskt och väl översatt språk. Man blir genuint glad av Winn-Dixie." Gull Åkerblom, BTJ
