It's hard to believe that it's officially the 20th anniversary of Newberry Honor book Because of Winn-Dixie, the modern classic by Kate DiCamillo that's captivated the imaginations of hundreds of thousands of young readers. In fact, India Opal Buloni herself would be 30 today. Wow. While any book makes a fabulous holiday gift, the beautiful new 20th Anniversary Edition of Because of Winn-Dixie should definitely make your holiday gift list. Maybe you're shopping for a original fan of the movie or the film (who might not be quite such a young reader anymore!), or maybe you're looking for a elementary or middle school reader who's yet to fall in love with the original. Either way, the details of the special edition make it a perfect gift book, featuring gold foil, and deckled edges that look beautiful on a shelf. Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo: The special 20th anniversary edition makes a beautiful gift for a child, a teacher, or a now-grownup who's a fan of the original (sponsor) Inside you'll find a brand new introduction by award-winning author Ann Patchett, plus a new afterword written by Kate DiCamillo, with her personal reflections on the years since the book was first published. What hasn't changed: The same endearing, quirky, and uplifting story of a lonely preacher’s daughter in a new town, when her life is transformed by a scruffy dog she names Winn-Dixie. And considering how dog-eared and well-read old copies of this book tend to be, Because of Winn-Dixie could make a truly thoughtful and affordable gift to donate to your school's own library, or to refresh a favorite teacher's stash. Especially a teacher who may have introduced you to the book in the first place.
