Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World
by Vicki Myron
Never have I read a more heart-wrenching tale in all my 30 year life. I picked up this book because of the adorable portrait of a handsome orange tabby tomcat on the cover jacket. This was just one of those books that I felt magnetically drawn to, and it didn't hurt that I picked it up for a discount. Even if it hadn't been, I still think I would have bought it.
Dewey is the story of a library cat. Not just any library cat, but as the cover says: "The small town library cat who touched the world." And boy did he ever! Being a cat-lover myself probably helped me to appreciate his story more than most people, but I must say it isn't just a story about a cat. It's the story of how this cat helped strengthen the love and kinship of an entire community. When times seemed bleak and people frigid, Dewey had the power to open up the hearts and minds of even the most strongly guarded souls.
If you love cats as much as I do, pick up this book for the sake of your four-legged furry friends. Believe me. You'll be in tears as you turn and absorb every page. I was, I'll admit.
