The story centers on India Opal Buloni, 10, who recently relocated with her preacher father to the fictional town of Naomi, Florida. Opal comes across a scruffy Berger Picard causing trouble at Winn-Dixie. She claims that he is her dog and calls him “Winn-Dixie” since she doesn’t want the manager to take him to the pound.
