One School One Book!

Dear Kindergarten, First Grade and Second Grade Parents:

Welcome to One Book, One School season! We are excited about our selection, Because of Winn Dixie by Kate DiCamillo. Here is a synopsis (click here) of the book. I am writing to you to let you know that there is a reference to alcohol in the book that you may want to read through before you read aloud to your child or have your child read independently (pages: 29 and 95). I did find an interesting blog written by a parent who read it to a four-year-old boy that you may want to read HERE. It gives a pretty thorough account of the experience and observations of reading this book to a younger child. We hope you enjoy the book! Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
