The illustrations are darling but I don't know if I would have appreciated it as a book on its own if I hadn't read the adult Dewey book. The switch between third person narration to Dewey's thoughts for just a few pages was a little jarring.
Now, I am not a cat person, but this book about Dewey Readmore Books is too cute. Definitely wouldn't hate having a library cat at work (I think lol).
Great Story Time book for Pre-K and Kindergarten kiddos!!!!
This book was so cute! I wish my library had a library cat.
Surprisingly good read aloud... until you get to the gender stereotypes of moms and grandmas reading to kids BUT daddies working. Yikes!
My daughter read this book to me while we were waiting for her pediatrician to read her knee x-ray.
I read this to one of my Kindergarten classes on Tuesday and they fell in love. It was so adorable! Boys and girls alike were squealing over Dewey. The pictures are beautiful. I especially love how expressive Dewey's face is. This book is an instant library classic.
This is book some what about library rules, and about a cat that becomes a library cat, and helps out the library. I really liked this one a whole lot! It was funny, and fun.
Oh Dewey. Your story was cute to start but now I'm a bit sick of you. You, like your canine counterpart Marley, have turned into a let's see how much money we can make off this animal marketing venue.
This picture book featuring Dewey might appeal to Dewey fans or cat lovers, but that's about it. I didn't really learn anything about Dewey's life, the story doesn't flow, and it really does read like a "let's see what else we can turn this Dewey story into it and milk it for all it's worth" type of book. The book starts out OK but then it turns into random snipppets about Dewey and doesn't ever really have a cohesive plot. Honestly, I'm not even sure how this made it onto the Show-Me Readers list, other than the fact that it takes place in the library. But there isn't much of a lesson typically found in books on the list.
Needless to say, I was very disappointed in this book.

Sweet, but it didn't blow me away. (I haven't read the adult Dewey book because I get nervous with books about cats. Usually the cat dies. I can't handle it.)
