Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World |
Rating: 5 (out of 5)
Summary: Do-we love Dewey? You betcha!!
Comments: This book is about Dewey Readmore Books, a cat who as a kitten was found shivering in the drop off book box at a library in Iowa. He was adopted by the library staff and became the library's, and ultimately, the town's cat. Dewey greeted library patrons, helped shelf books and make the library a friendly place. The number of people visiting the library shot through the roof, and Dewey became a worldwide sensation. Even though I knew how it ended, I cried like a baby. This was a great read!! |
Rating: 2 (out of 5)
Summary: Underwhelming
Comments: I am sure Dewey was a great cat, however this book would have been better as a short story or even an essay. There simply wasn't enough material here about Dewey, the supposed subject of the book. Additionally, I really disliked how the author constantly anthropomorphized him, even going so far as to say what he was thinking (in italics) throughout the book. Overall, I felt that the quality of the writing was lacking. I skimmed the last third of the book, just to get through it. It just wasn't as enjoyable as all of the reviews have made it out to be. |

Summary: Purfectly wonderful TAIL
Comments: I loved this book. It was the best read I had in a long time. After seeing this in the check out line at Best purchase (of all places) I checked it out of our local library. I laughed, I cried and was uplifted by the stories of Dewey, Vicki and the entire town of Spencer. It goes to show that1person (or in this case, cat) really can make a difference in peoples lives. Thank you, Vicki, for sharing the story of Dewey Readmore Books with the world. I wanted the book to go on forever as it was such an enjoyable experience. |

Summary: Heart warming Dewey
Comments: This was a nice book. I would have liked more about the cats day to day antics and more pictures, however the author by using history of the area around her helped you understand Deweys appeal. Nice book |
