Book Review of Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World

Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 3


OK -- you're all right -- its not well written, not witty or urbane -- but I cried all the way thru it. It is a darling, homespun tale of a woman, her town, her job, her life and family, and a cat.

I admit, I am a librarian and a cat lover (tho I don't have a cat at this time), and a former Midwesterner...all that may have added up to the tears, but it really is a lovely read. Restores your faith in life, and its ups and downs. It also gives the obvious healing power that animals have...

Worth the time, worth the tears.
