Because of Winn-Dixie
Kate DiCamillo, 2000
This was a cute story for young readers with interesting characters and a few good morals. I wanted to like it more, but of the small group of young reader books that I've read in the past year or so, this one just seemed the least fleshed out. Good characters, but I wanted a little more from all of it. Every minor character had one little bit of detail that made them interesting, but I think that the book could have been a little longer and given us a little more with the background characters. I don't think that would have been too much for the younger readers to handle. A good read, but I just feel that it could have been better.
