This book was good. If you love cats then you can relate to this creatures antics. It put a smile on my face knowing that all over the world animals are bringing joy to people.
Story is simplistic but very heart-warming. Dewey had more of a positive impact on the world than some humans. Worth reading.
I read this book several years ago and thought hey, I'll listen to the audio book. Nope. Still a stupid cat.
Predictably, I cried buckets when I read this. I’ve heard about this book a long time ago, but never got around to reading it until now.
When reading other people’s posts about it though, more often than not, they’ll mention how much they cried at the end, so being a sentimental sap myself, I knew I would cry too.
Dewey is an amazing story, and Dewey is an amazing cat. I’ve never had cats growing up so there’s a lot I don’t know about their behavior and characteristics, but it seemed to me that Dewey is really almost human.
Of course, he is one of a kind, and as Myron says in the book, not every cat can be a library cat, a library cat has to have the right personality. And Dewey did.
What I love most about the book is the stories about every person that Dewey touched, each life he changed, how much better and brighter a person’s day became just because they crossed paths with Dewey.
We all need a Dewey in our lives.
This is a wonderful, wonderful book. It touched me and warmed my heart and brought me to tears and made me realized just how big a difference even a small person or animal can make in the world. It is a must-read for any cat lovers, but really, I think everyone should read it.

I immediately fell in love with the tiny orange fur ball, and enjoyed reading about his life. Myron's story of Dewey was incredibly powerful and touching. Never before have I cried so hard, or mourned such a loss while or after reading a book. As an animal-lover with a soft spot for cats, this is definitely a book that will remain on my shelf.
Like many of the low-star reviews I was expecting more Dewey and far less Vicki. If you just want Dewey, read the picture book.

I borrowed this e-audiobook from a library because: 1) It was available 2) It looked cute 3) I'm a librarian, and figured I might enjoy it.
I gave up at chapter 15, however. It is cute, though its cute wore thin for me. The narrator does a fine job. Dewey sounds like a lovely cat, and it's a neat story. I think this would work better (for me!) as a short story; I really did not care for the level of detail about the town, the library, or, really, Dewey.
