Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World by Vicki Myron

4.0

I thought this book looked awfully sentimental, but the subject matter was hard to resist, since I like orange boy cats and libraries. The book isn't just cutesy stories about a cat, though, but rather a portrait of a Middle America town that's going through tough times, and a library director who is going through her own tough times when someone drops a kitten through the book return chute at the library. The cat, Dewey, goes on to be a big part of the library and the the entire town. I enjoyed the book a lot more than I expected to and recommend it to cat lovers, especially.
