I love Dewey's story in itself--how he survived and made the people and community around him happy.

No doubt Dewey and Ms. Myron had a wonderful and indescribable relationship, and although the book was highly entertaining, I personally felt it was really repetitive and I expected more in terms of the writing and the content. Yes, Dewey obviously affected a lot of people, but I felt like every chapter revolved around the same thing--the writers would constantly go back to how Dewey was special because of how he just "knew" or how he never changed and was reliable.

I don't mean to sound critical, as I'm sure this was a hard book for Ms. Myron to write, but I was looking for more variety.

It was a wonderful book and I highly recommend it because of the "story" of Dewey. However, I feel as though the writing itself lacks the vivaciousness of Dewey himself.
